    A used Prusa i3 MK2 has arrived and after some work is up and running.  We still need a Raspberry Pi to be able to use both machines easily. 

    Mini:

    Printed a test print fine

    Mini #2: 

    Printed a test print fine. 

    Prusa (outside cabinet with blue left Z-rod holder):   

    Had to solder the thermistor wire back into the socket but now it is able to detect the hot end temperature.  It just finished a test print and was able to regulate the temperature fine.  This machine is now outside the cabnet

    Prusa #2 (inside cabinet with orange left Z-rod holder):   

    Spent an hour cleaning the bed and creating a PEI patch at the back center of the bed.  Did some calibration fun and it seems to work fine.  I tested it in the cabinet while I was working on the old one outside the cabinet so that is how they sit.

    I'm looking into a new bed but the one that is on there is in nice shape except for the little ring around my patch.  Please be nice to this printer, it is in new surroundings and it needs to get used to the pack.


    Taz 3:   

    Sign on the printer said it printed a blob.  I found no blob and was able to print a test print without issue.  It looks super.

    Taz 5:   

    Printed test prints fine.

    Thanks Ted.

    Do we figure out a birth control method up there?
