      Wondering if anyone has tried more excotic nozzles like the Olsson Ruby? Currently I'm using a copper E3d, seems to work better than the regular bass ones.

        What is the difference you observe as opposed to a standard brass nozzle? thanks!

          I've tried a Tungsten nozzle (DDmaterial), but it kept jamming am going to try a titanium heatbreak to see if that can solve it, latest machine has an E3D hardened stainless steel nozzle but I have not got to the printing-anything-with-it stage yet.

          Olson Ruby is a nice idea, quite beautifully made. When someone asked the question on a large facebook 3D printing forum, half the answers were "they're amazing no issues ever", and the other half were "it broke almost straight away".

            Mostly it seems to impart its heat into the extrusion better, allowing lower temps or fast printing.
