Small update

Hi readers
all fixed nicely
Small update here!
I fixed the small fan that cools the extruder and I made it possible to disconnect the fans from the power supply. Usually they are connected straight to the 12V input.




both fans connected to one terminal on the GEN6 deluxe board


I also switched back to clamps for holding down the glass plate on my print bed. The tape didn't hold the glass good enough and it started to come loose. The clamps I use now won't bump into the extruder because they don't stick out as much as the previous ones.

Last but not least I update the Marlin firmware after running a PID autotune. The instructions I used can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APzJfYAgFkQ

Ran out of filament

Yesterday I ran out of filament on the end of a big print. Unfortunately the print wasn't finished yet. Here is the time-lapse video of the print: http://youtu.be/hjPn_ucdcfY
Luckily I can start printing again because today I got my new filament
