Review on πŸ”§ Upgraded Aluminum Filament Creality Extruder by Rodney Gonzalez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Hello, this works fine! Much better than the standard plastic extruder

I found that my Ender 3 extruder had a broken clamp handle. Bad prints and a lot of heartache and trying to find the cause. The plastic extruder handle is cracked due to the nut paste being pushed into the plastic. The ball bearing could no longer hold the PLA material. But he was progressive, so it was difficult to identify him. This new aluminum extruder was easy (for me) to install in 15-20 minutes. The included schematic is good BUT it would be better if there were some real photos showing what it looks like assembled. Slightly different than the standard extruder, this aluminum extruder has a different spring and strut arrangement and I had to figure it out. I needed a pair of hex keys of a different size (metric) but I already had them from the tool kit that came with my printer. My first initial print layer was flawless and I'm waiting for the nine hour print of the toy truck body to be successful.

Pros
  • 3D printer accessories
Cons
  • Some small things
