GET3D free give away free extruder.

Constant reaistance to movement due to detent torque and gearing down is far easier to conrrol than constant friction. I've done belt z with no gear reduction and 4:1 and both drop with no power. Belt and worm is the next major mod for my P3Steels following on from 1mm pitch trapezoidal screw.

They are 5:1 same as the ones on the lulzbot. I only have very low stock right now but I can get more very soon.

(5+2/11):1 According to your data sheet.

This is a funny number, equivalent to a 57:1 gear followed by 1:11 gear. I wonder if those two numbers are intuitively visible when looking at that gear's internals.

As for bed dropping, my 310x310x6mm bed holds well with these anti backlash nuts https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32838135064.html (two 8mm lead screws, 4 starts, 8mm lead).

Edit: Not applicable for belt drives though.

The high gear ratio motor is mainly being discussed in relation to a belted bed, no lead screw.

I just want to let everyone know i dropper the price to 80.00 each. They are very nice extruders and work great. I gave 10 away and no one has replied at all. I hope the ones I sent out for free would let everyone know how good they are there was a lot of work put in to them. I hope to her back from the people I sent them to so we can see how they like them.

Thank you

@Get3D Yeah you need someone to actually write a review, it does seem like a lot of mass for me to be honest.

Get3D

You would be surprised. I want so to write a review because I could put anything. So I would love some else to do it.

Maybe consider making your expectations clear from the get go in the future, helps reduce disappointment.

That said hopefully someone will feel the calling to do a write-up. Or reach out to some of the bigger names on YouTube to do a review perhaps. If you got say Alex Kenis to do a review I'm sure it would get all the praise it deserves.

@jay_s_uk got a free one, the only forum user that said he got one. How is it, Jay?

@droftarts
I've only just got around to designing a mount for it.
My toolchanger has taken a little longer than I expected to get up and running.
That being said, I'm free of the family for a few days in a couple of weeks so I intend to get it all fitted and tested then.

Hi jay_s_uk,

I can't wait to see what you can do with it. I hope to see it soon.
