Help Please, MakerBot 2x Experimental 3D Printer

I want to change from the .04 mm nozzle to the 0.03 mm nozzle for doing smaller prints

An engineer wants me to print some things and the 0.04 mm nozzle is just to big.

I remember reading awhile back that going to a smaller nozzle you can print smaller details.

Ordered some smaller nozzles, they will be here in a few days.


Thanks


Mike

What help do you need?

I switch nozzles a lot, so just set the extrusion width to auto, then you can just edit your nozzle diameter when you make the switch and the extrusion settings will change automatically. Pretty easy.
