E3d #56

Closed philfifi closed 9 years ago

philfifi commented 9 years ago

This is the merge of the 2 previous pull request (fan-duct-work and hot-end-work). It allows the E3D head to be used, and adapt the fan-duct accordingly so that it fits. Here is the result: e3d_fan_duct

Let me know what you think.

nophead commented 9 years ago

It's a good piece of work, thanks. I can't merge it at the moment for a couple of reasons. Firstly this repository has to match the kits I am selling and I don't want to change the fan duct shape when J-Head is selected. It conflicts massively with changes I made locally to make the Huxley version work and also add a Z probe.

Is there a slt for this fan duct been looking for one to work with the e3d hotend?

philfifi commented 9 years ago

Hello Chris, If you prefer, I can propose another branch where the shape of the duct is unchanged. (at least for Jhead. It has to be thinner for e3d anyway). But that will not solve anything about the conflicts. Are you ready to share your local modifications ? In another branch in the meantime. I can have a look at the conflicts and check how to resolve them.

@jem-tech I am not sure to understand your question. The branch I propose is a possible solution to have a fan duct that fits with an E3D head. At least in theory. I printed the duct and it seems to fit correctly. I will mount it completely on the printer this weekend (hopefully).

nophead commented 9 years ago

Yes I don't want anything to change when E3D is not selected.

As for the conflicts I know if I merge your changes I will not be able to merge mine. I don't really understand git enough. I actually develop with a difference source control and just use git to publish.

@philippe luc i am looking to print the fan duct you proposed for the e3d head but dont know mush about open scad. i guess what i am asking is where can i get the file STL for the duct so i can print it?

Indeed this pull request induce too much changes in the fan duct, that doesn't necessary worth. This new request: https://github.com/nophead/Mendel90/pull/57 replaces this one, hence closing it. Thanks
