Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

Would it be possible to get an Orion from the factory with a smaller nozzle already installed?

Thanks.

Yes, something I know I am not so good at

Well, primarily the bowden troubles me, and the fact that I do not understand the extruder motor and gearing on the Rostock one bit, heh.

So I ran into this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi_395ofG70 that shows the Orion and mentions some of the parts and ways the Orion is an upgrade fromt he Rostock.

Is this still the case or have these changes gone to the Rostock as well>

Thanks

My background. I had a Mendelmax Prototype, which I made several upgrades to, and it never seemed to have the precision I wanted it to have. Had a bunch of spare parts, sold it all the other day. (So I am not a total noob. I know the general things about printers.) Decided I want higher precision ...

Is this an aftermarket upgrade?

Thanks

Ahh, ok. Just trying to track down what problems I might run into if I decide to get one of these. I really like the Orion for the prebuilt factor, but I am not thrilled about the small build envelope :/ I built a Cartesian bot and just sold it. Trying to figure out what to do for the next one ...

Is there any post explaining this in better detail than the manual? Because I am curious why these connectors are not supplied.

Thanks

Looking over the assembly guide it seems that this printer takes quite a few connectors that are not supplied and need to be purchased separately from multiple sources. Is that still the case?

Thanks
