our black TAZ "3" 3D printer doesn't work partially because its hotend resistor is burned out. Its hotend is a "Budaschnozzle 2.0" Here's a link to the nozzle: https://www.lulzbot.com/support/budaschnozzle-20 this is the parts list: http://download.lulzbot.com/Budaschnozzle/v2.0/Budaschnozzle_2.0_0.35noz_re… the part we need is: [ PC-RE0007 ] Heat Resistor, 4.7 Ohm this seems to be the sale page for replacement resistors: https://www.lulzbot.com/store/parts/heat-resistor but we can probably find one lying around, and i have thermally conductive epoxy for gluing it in. -jake _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://sudoroom.org/lists/listinfo/sudo-discuss

It should be a tight enough fit to hold in place by itself, no? I would expect regular thermal paste to conducts heat better than the epoxy anyway... Patrik PS: the replacement resistor that Lulzbot sells is only $3.50, and I would expect that one to fit the hole like a glove. They seem to be out of stock right now though...

Sorry for trying to be helpful, but I don't think you could expect me to magically know those details. It just seemed better to use the Lulzbot resistor that you listed in your first email. Patrik PS: the resistor recommended by Lulzbot is available on Digi-Key for $1.50 <https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/vishay-sfernice/RWM06224R70JA15E1/RWMB-4.7CT-ND/1587939?utm_adgroup=Resistors&gclid=CjwKCAiAhfzSBRBTEiwAN-ysWEwePIQ6Rl2PioHblQy56f0W38XUWEMqlF8XKOAmPfNA1bfxALw10BoCBPwQAvD_BwE> - might not help if it's the wrong resistance tho.

There are much better nozzle designs out there by now so if it doesn't work out we can always replace the whole block or nozzle later, i even have some of those parts laying around. i'm going to sudo now and i'll take a look at it. thanks again! -jake > On Wed, 17 Jan 2018, Patrik D'haeseleer wrote: > > OK - I shaved down the other side of the resistor, but the end cap of the > resistor is starting to show through and it doesn't quite fit in the barrel > yet.
