I had one my belt clamps fracture, you might thicken those up by a bit instead.

The extruder design you started with should work fine. I haven't had any problems with it and Carl has had it working even longer. Are you...
Nothing too fast, less than 100mm/s but you should be able to feed filament fast enough at that speed as long as your hot end is the right temp....
Your setup is similar to mine, I have the E3D V6 with the same bowden mount but I have 800mm of bowden tube and print fine. Make sure your hot end...
Does anyone have a good relatively quiet alternative for the 30mm fan on the E3D v6?
How would you enclose the top where the flex tube has to feed the moving hot end?
PID tuning the hot end thermistor is critical for proper operation. @AK Eric did a good walkthrough on his blog Building the C-Bot 3D printer:...
Have you done PID tuning of the hot end thermistor? If you are running from a program like Repetier Host, command the hot end temperature to...
Are you cooling your stepper driver chips? Is it the extruder motor that stops turning or does the filament keep feeding and disappearing? Are...
Is your cold end fan connected directly to the 12v power supply? Some slicing programs specify retraction distance and the retraction re-feed...
Would it be easier to put an enclosure plate on the very bottom of the printer so you don't need cutouts for the motors etc?
Two motors on a cross beam is what I went for, Carl mentioned the front back motor arrangement which is what Eric did. They seem to have about the...
200 seems to be the magic number for the different colors of hatchbox PLA I've been using, except silver, which always has difficulties for some...

This seems like a good enough bandwagon. [ATTACH]
For those of us without octoprint, there are still ways to get time-lapse videos! [MEDIA]
For my issue, Im running my heated bed via a relay so the steppers and bed are independently drawing power from a supply with plenty of margin. I...
I thought that might be the answer. I've printed a dozen or so parts on the cold bed so far and had good results but none of them had a very big...
After a month I finally got around to hooking up my heated bed. The result seems worse than using the room temp glass bed. It seems like the lower...
