Gimbal,
What temp are you printing at? Also are you using a fan? Mine keeps on getting like halfway through the first layer of the cal. cube and then jamming up big time.
230c, but that's my settings and not verified, you must use a fan.

Re: Flashed bootloader = dead Rostock

Sure you can, you just need to be a bit creative, google around an you will find how to:

http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=41704.0

http://projectgus.com/2010/07/eeprom-ac ... h-arduino/

And that's why you always should erase eeprom before you load new firmware.

My apologies. I wrote "firmware" when I should have written "EEPROM". There's no way to adjust PRINTER_RADIUS from the EEPROM table. (But I certainly wish there was!) The spelling and other errors should be corrected in the 1.10 version of the manual. I could understand a possible EEPROM bug if ...

Think we can get better controll over hysteresis with the rubberband orbeting extruder, and a shutoff valve. Another way to go are a extruder with hotrunner and shutoff valve, it can be made really small
