These are much cheaper and at minimum equal to or slightly better than the quality of darts I can buy locally at the local big brand store.
Lowers the friction which helps with long filament runs. Too much friction caused jamming in my CFS.
After switching to this tubing I still had some jamming but a lot less. I had to reduce the run length to remove all the jamming issues.
It fixed a heat creep issue I had. It hasn’t jammed.
It forces the PTFE tube higher and it requires routing it under the E-Chain to reduce the rubbing, which can also affect the leveling mesh.
A piece of PTFE tube broke off in the touch fitting. The only way to remove the broken tube from the fitting is to break off the collet. I took it apart trying to extract the broken piece. The tension **** needed to be calibrated back. It never worked the same so I bought a replacement.
I bought the kit "Motion Perfect Linear Carriages” Mach 23 this year and yesterday after some printing issues and errors I discovered the carriage was somehow broken (never happened to me to have a broken carriage). At first, my printer head start to have issues to move manually. I found some resistance and the carriage was not gliding smoothly. I thought it was an issue with the belts and start to investigate. Results, check the pictures I took. I use it on a Voron 2.4 350 printing only PLA (open printer) at room temperature. Apparently, the sleeve is broken/distorted. Side note, it is very complex to lock 6 mm belts on this carriage with this carriage using Cartographer 3D CNC tool head (never had issues with any other carriage).
Strong fans, but they don't like being run at less than ~70% PWM when using as generic fans in Klipper. I installed 4 as electronics fans in my Micron (on a splitter), and they can be a little loud if they are all going full blast. I run them at about 80% with a 20ms cycle time for software PWM.
Love the matte finish and that it's marine biodegradable. Great filament. Hoping they get more colors in stock soon!
The staff at West3d are amazing! They went above and beyond helping me select the correct frame, and making sure I had all the supporting hardware. The frame is beautiful, straight extrusions, and tapped correctly. Thank you West3d!
I was blown away by the quality of the LDO Voron 2.4 kit, I can't wait to get this put together. A quick perusal of the box showed everything that was ordered was included, and as before everything is well organized and labeled.
Easy to set up and use. Works well.
Saw these on sale for 1/3rd of the normal price. Bought some just because I know I'll have projects in the future to use them. They're rails that work. I guess people might not have liked the black color or maybe the color wears off or something. No idea. Function over form for me. Let me know if they go on sale again. I'll get more.
The SV08 is a monster of a deal for the printer that you get. That said, the areas where they made their cost savings to get the price down seems to be in the electronics. Nothing wrong with that but it means the all in one board gets replaced if anything gets burned out. At this price, it's worth it. Trying to move to a more robust mobo and wires to make it work will still put you out double this price.
What i love about it, you can flip the printer without removing the bed, so you can work on the electronics.
Ambrosia filament is my favorite for pla and petg. Prints great and the colors are awesome.
Well packed and delivered promptly
What can I say highly expensive. But it worked as it should. Installation was straight forward. No problems here.
Very interesting material! Really love the idea of biodegradable material to remove the waste guilt for failed/test prints. It is quite soft (low tensile strength?), has some flex before breaking and has a matte finish. I wouldn't call this a PLA replacement since it lacks PLA's rigidity/strength and bridging support isn't as good as other plastics. I haven't found a mechanical use for it besides using it for test prints before re-printing in a stronger material. I also couldn't get Creality Slicer to accept a bed temp of 0, so I used PrusaSlicer instead. For my prusa mk3.5 0.4mm, Temp: 210, Bed: 0, Extrude: 1.05, Cooling: 80-100%, Max vol: 9mm3/s, Ramping lift up to 0.2mm, 35 deg slope, 1 mm retraction length, wipe 80%, 20mm/s bridges, 8mm outer brim with 0 separation gap.
Makes inserting all of the inserts for my printer builds a lot easier, and it was a fun project as well.
Well, for starters, the GitHub locks of instructions on how to assemble it, but let's be fair, a lot of projects depend on you using a CAD software, which I think it shouldn't be happening in 2026.
Now, the LDO kit. The quality parts, everything well packed, nothing wrong with that. However, there are a lot of missing parts: you need to source your own M3 nuts, your own screws to build the frame and I don't know if the GitHub has a revised version of handle, but the M3x14 didn't work, I had to use my own set of M3x16.
Either LDO double-check their kits or make a GitHub with their own version, or update the hardware on them.
Also, I didn't notice until now, but the extrusions are longer than spec, about 2mm longer. Seriously I'm disappointed of the lack of quality control.
Overall this has been working quite well and will probably be a go to mod for any future builds.
Assembly is a bit annoying lots of small parts to manage. I agree with the other reviews that some extra of the small pieces would be a good QOL change. Overall seems like a good product and a fair price.
Thanks West3D for selling SSRs at a fair price. Finally get to run my Voron beds with full power within safety margin.
Best filament I’ve ever used. Love the colors and prints smooth and fast.
I used this for my Micron build and they made it a piece of cake to add grease to the rails. No complaints.
These have been super useful for installing all of the heatset inserts in my projects. It fit my cheap 900M-compatible iron well and have held up well.
