Ok so I actually found a good deal on Amazon Prime day for something that's useful (I think)…the direct sprite extruder is $30 off (in Canada). Seems to have good reviews, but I don’t know what it actually improves. My printer gets about as much TLC as my hammers, and aside from this under-extrusion bs I’ve been trying to figure out, it’s still banging out prints. Thoughts?
Thanks!
As an extruder its fine, I will say cooling shrouds tend to be very bulky and the default cooling isn't very good.
