Brass Tips

07-06-2021, 08:36 AM

Morning Hive Mind. I have only used the tips on the right in my MEGA ZERO 2. I ordered a set and did not pay enough attention to details. Can I use the one on the left. If I change my Z stop? and the threads are not as long. Will that be an issue? I like the idea of a longer point. With PETG I get some random buildup on the tip and comes off in the print. Maybe that would be a better tip for some filaments

If you're getting buildup on the tip I would suggest you are perhaps overextruding or your Z steps are too low. I print 90% PETG & do not get buildup.
