David the switch as you have found is mounted on a pcb and you can get a replacement easy enough

Got to love a mossie

Hi David I'm sure switch is us ,its an easy job to replace and relatively cheap to buy.

Hi David I will take the back of my dx6i and have a look at the switch and let you know

Is it definitely a dx5i and a dx6i ? Can you take pic and show us

Dont forget a first aid kit ,who hasn't mannage not to operate on themselves whilst using a scalpel ,only last week I added to my countless scars whilst using an orthopaedic v20 easily cut through skin,vein into bone just as it was made to do ,copious amounts of blood healthy colour to .

Wonderful workmanship

I will check that asap I'm with Barclays last time I searched I couldn't find it

I do have a direct debit subscription I sent an e mail cancelling about 6 months ago but got no response have managed to track down a tel no will try that . Personally I no longer find it a worthwhile read

Rustoleum chrome is excellent but will need fuel proofing

Easy to subscribe online to the mag but not easy at all to cancel your subscription .

Just to be clear the heartbreak is the section of unthreaded between the heat block and the finned heatsink . Flow problems are nearly always to a burnt filament deposits in the heat breaks and ptfe tube ,a stripdown to replace heartbreak and ptfe tube ,be sure to use heatsink compound on the threaded part of heatbreak going into the heat block only. It's part of owning a 3d printer to be able to recognise the problems and be able to effect a fix.

That looks very smart Jeff

if all you need is a delay between leg retracts I use one of these https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-smart-retractable-landing-gear-gear-and-door-sequencer.html

I built my own cutter/engraving unit and it has an adjustable head height.

I use an NJE n40630 laser module in my engraver /cutter . a really cheap module will not be very good or last long and power output is misleading .it really depends on what you refer to as cheap. I personally find the NJE modules consistent .

Fantastic work David you have inspired me to crack on with my Tigercat although nowhere near in the same league.

If a series of prints are going well I never clean the plate if a minor problem creeps in then an application of pritt original on the weak area is all thats needed but every so often I remove the magnetic plate (prusa original) and give it a good wash with some detergent to degrease when the plate is refitted I run a first layer test and adjust if necessary then apply a thin layer of pritt stick . tall prints are best done on a 3 layer raft.

your plane fell to bits

Usually when they start having extrusion problems there is burnt filament residue I only clean if in dire need otherwise always use new . One point is if you switch between different types of filaments that require a temp change change the nozzle i.e. pla to petg or flex etc may not cause a problem immediately but chances are it will in the middle of a print.

progressing well Criag it's looking very impressive

did you see who was flying it

holes go straight through no threading

here you go pics as requested
