  • My only idea of the top of my head is trying another heater block. Make sure you use thermal paste as well to help with heat transfer. I know those probably won’t help, though. I posted, though, to mention I was running a BIQU B1(Peice of Crap) using BIQU’s HS2 V2 lite(love that, though) extruder. One print went fine, and then I was suddenly overextruding. I had to change my steps from 930 to 250 or so. Then, after powering down and turning back on, my number needed to return to the 930 value. Very weird, especially without a shutdown.


  • I’m away now, so I can’t find sources. I just modified a good sealing container with 1.25" dowel across the middle that holds 4 rolls high in the box. Cut holes and printed fittings for the pneumatic tube fittings. Put silica litter in the bottom. Now I have 4 rolls in a dry box, cheap, that each have their own port at the top of my printer. I’d recommend, though, trying to put each roll on its own roller, as that’s kind of a pain.


  • I would say it depends on where you get joy from in the hobby. I like working on my printer and making it better, so I’d buy a low end model and upgrade it. If that’s not your jam, I would recommend a Prusa or Bambu. I have no experience with them, but I hear good things. I bought a biqu B1 and added upgrades myself. I’ve had days where I wanna pull my hair out, but I have somehow enjoyed the challenge.
