3D Printed Hardtop

If we’re considering just materials alone then yea I clear the cost of most other aftermarket hardtops by a good sum. I bought a printing setup that can churn out all the plastic I need for this project relatively quick which is three printers but I chalked those up to business expenses as I plan on

I just woke up to this…

I would recommend pulling up the Elegoo Centauri Carbon wiki page and start learning how to disassemble your printhead and replace your hotend. I was able to recover from a smaller blob without replacing the entire hot end, but I did have to replace the nozzle. I would advise being very careful unpl

Is the CC2 as bad as returns suggest?

So 20 CC2's. That doesn't seem like a high amount. I wonder where these returns are coming from since Elegoo was selling CC returns themslves.

First printed suppressor

I enjoy the options and materials my Centauri Carbon does, as well as not locking you into a slicer ecosystem like Bambu.

CC1 Canvas first impressions, a few things I wished/wanted to know beforehand

Oh, also for switching to non canvas use you can print the adapter Elegoo put out to switch more quickly. If you want to use bare PTFE collets theirs has some problem so I did a remix to fix it https://www.reddit.com/r/ElegooCentauriCarbon/comments/1tdqzk8/remixed_the_elegoo_flexible_filament_adapter_for/
