You cant do dual extrusion on the UO+.

No upgrades. There are a lot of resources on the net to add upgrades though.

The printer is an Original Plus. It was running great the last time I used it. However, it needs a new nozzle. It is not self-leveling so that can be a chore. You'd probably want to print out new bushing blocks, which is easy to do. Thingiverse has a bunch of them to pick from. Also, one of the wires gong to the hotend is connected outside of the hotend mount. I'd really like to see this go to someone who will use it, which is why I'm selling it so cheap.

I'm selling my Ultimaker Original+ for only $75 plus shipping. I don't use it anymore and I don't want to keep it mothballed. I'm trying to free up space in my workroom. I don't want to just toss it away, which is why I'm selling it so cheap. I'd like to see it go to a good home. It worked great the last time I used it, but it does need some TLC.

Does anyone have experience running Cura 4.6 on an Ultimaker Original Plus?

The printer is still available. I'll send you a PM

Yes, the printer is still available. Where in Canada are you?

I'm selling my Ultimaker Original+ with heated bed for $199 or best offer. The last I used it, it worked. Two of the sliding blocks have a little damage but they work. The nozzle will need to be cleared before you start printing. Its a fun starter printer for someone who likes a project. I'm selling it because I bought a Form 2 printer, and now I print everything with that. If interested, let me know your location so I can calculate the shipping.

I just sent you a message...

I finally got my the printer bed leveled. I had to uninstall the latest version of Cura and reinstall an older one. Thanks for looking though!

I'm selling my Ultimaker Original+. There are some broken pieces on two of the sliding blocks, but they still work. Let me know if you're interested. I'm willing to part with it and the four spools of filament for $450. I'll also throw in 4 spools of Taulman 3D filament. They are sealed in their original packaging 1x Taulman 910 1x Taulman Bridge 1x Taulman 618 1x Taulman T-Glase Taulman Store link: http://taulman3d.com/buy-direct.html I am located in the USA, in Buffalo, NY.

Problem solved. Heater cable was too tight and was dragging the z-stage down.

I just finished assembling the UM+ and I am having trouble with the Z-Stage. Every time I try to calibrate the Z-switch, the print bed immediately drops approximately .635 cm (1/4 inch) and then stops. It's not a slow drop either. It's immediate. I've raised the print bed several times, and found this happens all the way down the lead screw. However, the speed and distance of the drop height decreases dramatically if I only raise it to just below the X-motor.

Thanks for the info.

I'm interested in your UM. Is it the "plus" or did you add the heated bed yourself? Where are you located so I can get an estimate on shipping?

It looks like the specs are the same on the UM2ext as on the UM2, unless I am wrong. If so, please let me know. If they are, I still plan on purchasing the UM2ext to augment my trustworthy UM Original, which still clobbers any Makerbot model, past to present. I've spoken to people from Stratasys and they universally revile the MB. Everytime I visit my regional Stratasy vendor, the MB they have in their showroom is always in the same place--shoved into the far corner with a layer of dust on top.

Thanks everyone...

Never mind. I was just on his web site and found what I was looking for..

Has anyone had achieved simialr success following "snowygrouch's" process for Dual Extrusion printing with PLA/PVA? Has this process been supplanted by other methods that have been posted since this?

I ordered from "robotshop.com" and after a week they came in the mail from China. Unfortunately, the holes for the bolts were too small. I managed to find some tiny nuts and bolts, so the printer is working, but i'm going to order replacements from digikey so they're correct.

Thanks for the welcome! I have an Ultimaker Original, and my first thought was to order the limit switches pack from the Ultimaker store, but the cost with shipping is over $30 US. If I could find a limit switch somewhere closer I'd be a happy man, since I could then put the savings on shipping towards buying more filament. Thanks for replying! Also, I am 99% positive this is the switch used in the Ultimaker 1.

Where do you plan to get your limit switches from?
