Will we ever see an E3D v7 hotend? News on the Toolchanger / HAF heated beds / Supervolcano!
On my roadtrip around Europe, I got to spend some time at E3D – in this video, we talk about their newly announced products around high-temperature 3D printing, what is up with the toolchanger (spoiler: it’s about to ship!) and what a future v7 hotend and next-generation Titan extruder could look like!
Basics: Cleaning out a clogged nozzle!
