The one I have been using is one that @frederiekpascal shared. I can't seem to find it in the search. With @Neotko 's help, I have refined it some and made some really nice prints in @ColorFabb nGen filament that needed the support structures S3D offers.

It seems to work on the ones I COMMENT on. By on my own post I created...it does not.

Just noticing that when I had comments on my 3D Print, and had notifications on...I do not get any.

Don't keep quiet if you have constructive comments I just wanted to gently correct you, its much easier to people to report issues here and go through the entire Asana mess

Wrong, they said to chime in here. And the Devs have answered (i.e. Nallath)

I'll admit, the idea of putting together another printer isn't my favorite thing. Then, kick into that I'm already upgrading from stock, based on the feedback of others in the group! I'd much prefer something I can unbox, setup, let it do it's calibrations and commence printing.

Well said!

Just bought one of those FolgerTech FT-5's last month! Have some stuff on order, E3D Aero (upgrade for my E3D v6 & Titan), Duet Wifi, 7 inch touch screen....and I need to CNC the wood parts to aluminum. I bought the bracket from Adafruit. Should be an interesting build

I am really impressed with my Ultimaker 2+, so much so I am selling off my Ultimaker Original. I just don't need to tinker as hard with the UM2+ for a great print. (Plus I am always doubting my building skillset when bad prints happen!) The Ultimaker 3 is a very, very nice printer. On my wish list for a while.

Were you at the Ultimaker 3 release in Brooklyn? Ultimaker invited me down, beautiful city...quite different from my house here in Maine. My printers quietly churn away in the basement where the temperature stays around 61-63 degrees (F) and low humidity

I've done the same research, narrowing it down to the Raise3D and the gcreate gMax. The Raise3D has some issues if you want to use materials besides PLA or ABS as there isn't a way to control the fan speed. The Facebook group has some good posts about modifications others have made. The gcreate gMax is very interesting but I am not a fan of moving build plates. I hope Ultimaker has something in the works!

nGen prints well, it takes some trial and error to get the settings right....but I have grown to love the stuff However, if your part needs some strength, nGen is a tad weaker than PLA and you might want to consider the newer filaments Ultimaker offers (Nylon, CP, etc)

I would love to know this, too. And I suspect, as with past printers, it is Top Secret But some hints would be nice

Is there a short list of changes?

Well I smell a conspiracy!!!

Hello... I'm selling my Ultimaker Original that I bought and built from the kit. I upgraded it last year with the Ultimaker heated bed kit, so this isn't a experimental setup. (The kit replaces the Z motor too). The printer also has a dual fan shroud setup, for improved part cooling. The nozzle is a first generation Olsson Ruby that works great with everything from PLA, nGen and abrasive filaments like CF20 (carbon fiber). I bought an Ultimaker 2+ a few months ago and find myself not using this printer much. I'd like to sell it off and use the proceeds for an Ultimaker 3 at some point I'm asking $1200 + shipping. The Original kit was $1800, the Ultimaker Heated Bed Upgrade was $320 This is an ideal printer for someone that likes to tinker! It needs a little calibration to print perfectly but does extremely well as is. LED lights are not included (re-using those on another printer) Here's a recent print at 0.10 mm layer height.

You know, if you have a nice car, you wouldn't put poor quality parts or fuel in it. Why go cheap on your Ultimaker replacement motor? I think the extra money spent on a known-good replacement will save you some frustrations in the future.

Since he's mentioned using a different feeder (Bondtech), could he upgrade the Ultimaker 2 print head alone? What parts are needed? Spacer, Olsson block, bigger heater...what else?

Be aware that there's a 10-12 week back order on the Original Prusa Mk2 (according to their order site)

I'll be curious how you make out My UMO (not +) has the heated bed kit and I was debating if it was worth the money to upgrade. I'm just not crazy about China-components. (I have the print head from my Ulimaker 2 I recently upgrade to 2+....just not entirely show how to upgrade that.) Document how you make it work!

I've heard a lot of good about the Lulzbot but agree with the above....I do not like the bedplate moving for prints. I prefer the enclosed setup, so that some filaments that need to have special considerations for heat/venting can be addressed easier. I've watched a lot of Lulzbot 6 reviews and they have really left me underwhelmed. Nothing really made me go "Wow". The Ultimaker 3 is a very well tuned machine. Frequent improvements and strong community support for it. The print resolution is outstanding and the PVA supports are very impressive. The Cura software makes using it a cinch. The Ultimaker 3 will set you further back financially than the Lulzbot, but if you're after very high quality prints, the 3 wins.

One of your photos...I think the last, showed the slider block really really close to the belt. I'd be curious, while you are manually moving the print head around, if one of those slider blocks it rubbing against the teeth of the belt.

Nice build. It looks similar to the FolgerTech FT-5 I am putting together.
