how do you think it would go converting my alu hotend to a all metal one?
It does have a ptfe liner so if I took it out, there would be about 1mm gap...
using a budaschnozzle atm, works very well... but I don't want to take it up to 300c... I got to about 240-260 at the very max
i only did the aluhotend in 1.75mm i can probably send you a thermal barrier that would do the job

hey guys, thought id post some pics of my aluhot end,
Do you think its possible to just take out the ptfe line and crank up the heat to 290 and use it with nylon ?
here are some pictures of it

won't work, the bore will be 4mm and all it'll do is jam up, it's not designed for high temp use like that especially without the liner

bugger, I wont bother then, is there anything you could think of that might work?
could i go crazy with cooling the heat sink and try 280c ?
does the liner go all the way down?
the liner goes all the way down , there probably isn't much that can be done without getting a e3d for high temp 3mm use, i'm not going to venture into high temp 3mm land as it is i may stop producing 3mm hotends all together

I had nothing but trouble with my Magma Hot end.. I really think it had a machining issue or something, it wouldn't extrude properly. I finally gave up and ordered an E3D and it's been smooth sailing ever since. I've heard a lot of people have had good luck with this air deflector: [www.thingiverse.com] but that's for the MakerFarm I3 only.
I really think that it's odd that the inner tube only contacts the heatsink at the very top. It can transfer heat but probably not all that well towards the bottom.

My printer all running , except one that I don't have a reliable hot end.
Meaning, my printer is a white elephant now.
I bought one, regretted it. Wished I've read this before I actually made the purchase.
Currently I am designing my own hot end.
