Thanks for posting, xile6! Your setup looks less complex that than the Mark 2 and I'm wondering how much less costly as well, perhaps. A few questions if you don't mind. Do you have step by step instructions and parts list? Also, are you finding that the concerns to raise the 'not in use' nozzle height are perhaps not a major concern in practice? Finally, have you tried printing 2 colors of nylon?
