Came quick and exactly what i been looking for so now i can stop cutting my other 3m tape in half!!! Very satisfied!
Like all PPS-CF, this is brittle. Like crazy brittle. Once loaded, it prints beautifully. Dimensionally accurate, chemically resistant up to 200° C for almost everything, and 220° C continuous use temperature.
I anneal this at 206C, so it's never going to present a problem in my heated chamber printers.
Prints great at 340/105/60 and makes smooth, warp free parts. I add an additional 0.10mm z offset in the filament profile in the Print Start code, and then remove the extra offset in the Print End code. On Mueller smooth PEI (and also textured PEI) I use a thin layer of my low viscosity bed glue to act as a separation layer. It likes to overbond to PEI, so the thin adhesive prevents PEI damage during removal.
Here's a K3 purge bucket just printed in the PPS-CF, along with some other PPS-CF and PPS-GF.
Building different toolhead for my Voron 2.4. Went with the Galileo 2 extruder kit. Perfect products as always. The toolhead is a XOL.
We have an H2S for rapid prototyping as well as production components for our machinery business. Due to the wide array of filaments used from basic PLA to PPS-GF (pretty much the limit of the H2S) I would rotate between 3 different Darkmoon plates. Shoutout to Darkmoon as the quality and value are top notch! However, the Tyson T-6436 can now meet all my needs/requirements which, simply put, makes my life easier. Not a fan of shiny parts, so I verified with both West3D and Tyson that I could scuff one side to get a matte/satin finish and it has worked beautifully! Had to run some production parts in Protopasta HTPLA-CF so haven't tried anything difficult but I have no doubt it'll handle whatever I throw at it. I will say preheating this slab of a plate is a must and recommend consulting Tyson's chart for temps as they are likely higher than what you're used to running. Thankful to have stumbled across this, and for West3D carrying the best components out there!
Finally got around to reviewing this. I got 4 of these and love them, plastic, pa, petg all stick like a champ. I can't for the life of me to get asa to stay though. Oh and the caution, get you some wide kapton tape to put over your magnet sheet before use. You can see on my one sheet were it has started pulling bits of magnet off.
Prints as great as it looks.

Still putting together my Milo V1.5, but the Syclla board works as advertised.
Bought this board to allow my Milo V1.5 with a Scylla control board to use my ethernet setup. Works as advertised.
I appreciate having the option to replace the gearset of my Galileo 2 extruder when the bearings and motor are still in good shape. Though the extruder was still producing excellent results, I found during routine maintenance that there was a lot of wear within the planetary set. I consider the gears to be expendable and really appreciate being able to restore the Galileo 2 to like-new condition for just a few dollars.
I have worn through a couple Bambu hardened steel nozzles and with the drop in replacement from Phaetus I am looking forward to a longer usability and the excellent performance and quality of prints my first few prints have yielded.
This simple, but clever, well designed tool makes accurate belt tensioning a breeze. Just a few seconds and it's done!
I slap one of these onto every printer i have
I've had clogs before. They're annoying, and sometimes stubborn.
The worst of the worst end up with the toolhead open. I've gotten pretty quick at that, but it's still annoying.
I recently had the mother of all clogs, high up in the hotend where there was nothing I could do about it. I tried cold pulls, I tried pulling the nozzle and clearing it with a torch, I tried opening the toolhead and swapping the PTFE, I tried pushing with a thin allen wrench, and I could not get this clog out for anything.
I tried basically everything in my playbook, other than torching the hotend itself. I try to avoid that if I can, but I was getting close to that point. Instead, I ordered a NoClogger--it's worth a shot, even though I'm skeptical. It would maybe make some future lighter clogs quicker to deal with, even if not in this case, right?
It still took effort. It wasn't a miracle that "just worked" immediately. This was a really bad clog. But with some alternating pushes from above, then below, back and forth, eventually I was able to work the clog out of the hotend. My printer is now printing as well as it's ever printed, without any further damage. And now I have a tool in my kit that I can use quickly for less problematic clogs, to make my life that much easier.
It's cheap enough that I wish I picked one up sooner, and I'm going to keep it handy from now on.
This ASA prints great at 265/110 with a 60-70c chamber. Its clean, not stringy, and strong. I love the Fluorescent Neon Green, it has a nice glow to it but its not overly shiny.
Just slapped right in and go. Very satisfied.
Bought a full set so I can run 7 color prints and am not disappointed.
Easy install and worked flawlessly.
the merchandise came on time. thank you
Absolutely a great project. Got this for my son and he is so happy with them. Got to pick each color and he's loving the sound quality and comfort on the head while doing long gaming sessions this was a perfect kit, saw the head(amame) booth at Rocky mountain and they didn't have any to sell at the booth. West3d for the win always super fast shipping
Aside from thinking about doing a full Voron 2.4 conversion on my SV08, it's good to have a cold spare of the regular toolhead available on general principle. This is that cold spare. And West 3D got it to me in a very timely manner. So good all around.
First printer build and first delta. Lots of fun to build with my kiddo and the LDO kit was great. It came with everything we needed in well labeled bags plus a kit of spares. A couple of issues came up with the instructions and ended with me installing the endstop cables backwards. Printed in Ambrosia ASA. I added a BTT HDMI5 screen for ease of use.
These Berserker bearings are amazing. Butter smooth motion with exceptional tolerances. The ABEC9 rating is incredible. It's difficult to find bearings rated that highly anywhere. There are times I'm looking for bearings for other projects and just wish West3d had that size. Great bearings and fair prices.
I bought these for a custom Trident build and after a little lubrication with Super Lube PTFE lubricant they run very smooth. Would highly recommend especially for the price.
