Hey Man, nice job. One Question, are you printing directly on aluminum. cause it looks like it. I'm having problems with my bed and was wondering about just using aluminum. Thanks man.
Hey, first sorry for the late reply! I use acetone mixed with a some abs filament. I let it dissolve in acetone then i put some of that smudgy liquid on my hot bet. I have a sandblasted aluminum plate on my heatbed. Be careful: use that method in and well ventilated area.
Remember to come back and post what you've printed as Make.
It's good for the designer and the community (that means you)!

be sure to use an aluminum plate that you can remove. dont do that on directly on your heatbed because the part will stick on it like hell.
Thanks for making this. One question, where is the front mounting braket? I don't see it when I load the stl or gcode.
Thanks
everything is in the gcode. it print as one part.
