Review on Geeetech MK8 Prusa Printer Extruder by Adam Tidd

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The hole for the turnbuckle is offset from the handle, the upper sleeve does not grip. Otherwise great!

The only issue I noticed from the start was that the tension screw hole on the handle was slightly offset, but I just filed some material to align it. The top link also didn't snag my bowden tube no matter what clamp I used, but the bottom link did. So I'm currently using it upside down without changing the direction of the stepper motor and it seems to work fine. Updated the video and instructions in the description after I installed it and asked about the brass washer. The instructions given to me, given by Revain, were for a CR-10 with a filament run out sensor and I was attempting to install it on an Ender 5.
