I am currently thinking of this:1.75mm e3d volcano 0.8mm or 1.0mm for supports, infill, or just large prints. Possibly Bowden.1.75mm e3d v6, 0.4mm for perimeters and detailed objects.I&#8217;d love to hear how you would load out, and why. I&#8217;m looking for suggestions and criticism alike.The Z axis is going to be about 1000mm, I&#8217;m hoping to have X 800, Y 500 or something about similar. I&#8217;ll likely use 1 or 2 mains powered silicone heaters controlled by a I\/O input relay.End goal is to have 2 independently addressable tool heads on the X axis, for rapid production of prints, ability to have disparate temperatures, and material types. http:\/\/ift.tt\/2aIaotP<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am going to be building a dual X carriage, tall format gt2 based derivative of RichRap sli3dr, aptly named the gli3dr 2.
