    First of all

    *\o/*

    Printing a 15mm calibration cube at the moment. The bed isn't heating now so not sure what's going on but everything else seems to be working though the bed also isn't home perfectly. So something is going on with the bed area.

    All of the stripped screws, however, were really really annoying.

    *yay*

    Although *boo*hiss* they still haven't sorted out the QA issues.

    The bed heating issue may be related to the one others have reported. I installed a fan right by the board as a preventative measure even though I have not, yet, had any problems with that.

    Well, this is after I installed a solid state relay, so I need to see what's going on. Time to take out the multimeter.

    But first I've got a few things I need printed (like the replacement fan bracket which I'm doing now)

    Let us know how the E3D works. It is on my upgrade-when-I-get-to-it list as well...
