I ended up disabling the filament sensor and that print finished just fine. I think I may have moved the print head when clearing the filament path?

It is easy to build, but read each step twice. I had to repeat a few.My MK4 is still sitting in the box. Hopefully in the next few weeks I will get some free time to put it together.
Well, I started on it tonight since one of my MK3s decided to start peeing around the heat sink. I will build the MK4 and then order an upgrade kit for the one that needs some work. Figure if I need to pull it apart it would be a good time to do the upgrade to it.It is easy to build, but read each step twice. I had to repeat a few.

Yes it is. I fixed it once before. I want to upgrade both of my mk3s so this just gives me a good reason to do this one now.

Got bored after class today and fixed it so now all 3 units are up and running. Still got a little playing to do with the mk4 but so far I am loving it.Good news. I am a very experienced person with V6 extruders. It is a great design with a flaw.

Are you a teacher or a student?Got bored after class today…
That’s what I am doing. The only thing the upgrade saves you is time.After looking at the price difference between the upgrade kit and what a new mk4 kit cost, I think I am going to just get another mk4 kit. I will just put both of my mk3s in cabinets and just use them for ABS and Nylon printing.
Do not see where it saves time when you have to print all the plastic parts.That’s what I am doing. The only thing the upgrade saves you is time.
Good point. The assembly is shorter and if you have a printer like I do, the parts were printed before the upgrade arrived.Do not see where it saves time when you have to print all the plastic parts.
