so a friend asked me to make this for him, and a bunch of other people also wanted them so hes put up a paypal page for it.

its an aluminium filament tensioner that fixes one of the major issues on the makerbot 1 and 2, or any home made printers that use the same head design. this will eliminate situations where the filament slips against the feed wheel because the derlin plunger has worn or become loose.

this mod can be printed on the machine in PLA as well, but people were finding the plastic was too soft to be effective long term.

he will be putting up some installation videos and more printing videos later this week and next week.

if you want the mirrorred set for the rep 1, get in by friday, because they may not be made again. this part is NOT for the replicator 2x. that model uses a different setup.
