You gave me an idea to install an extension that embeds 3rd party content.

Let's try it this way

Damn, it is still embarrassing to watch myself in a video :oops:
I have only watched it twice so far actually, both times together with people who more or less forced me to watch it.. :?

The manufacturing of the block and the nozzles is being revised as we speak by the way, hopefully further improving precision and quality.
Can not tell you more right now, but things will look even better in the future :)

Well, I can not comment that in detail, but I can say that only a very small part of the sales price of a kit ends up in my wallet.
The others involved does almost all the work though, so I am happy with that.
That is the way business has to work, what you gain has to be related to how much you work.

Most important for me is that this arrangement makes it possible for me to continue part time at the University, avoiding potential conflicts of interest in a convenient way.

That sounds like a win-win situation for everyone involved.

Hi Guys, thanks for the invite, the Olsson Block with a 35W heater and Roberts feeder are the first two modifications I would recommend makeing to any Ultimaker 2 user. better stable printing with this setup.
