 **Summary:** Space-made with DIY components; 1.75mm Filament, rather hacky; Hothead issues; Working pending head rebuild. **Summary:** Space-made with DIY components; 1.75mm Filament, rather hacky; Hothead issues; Working pending head rebuild.
  
-**State:** Unused for some time and in need of a hot-head rebuild. Previously, the main board (Sanguinoliu 1.3a) failed due to over-heating problems at the PID hot-bed power output. The board's bed power FET has been bypassed with the 5v logic directly driving an external relay for bang-bang bed control. The XYZ mechanics are working but the hothead assembly failed due to it's plastic cracking. A replacement hothead assembly has been printed and new head purchased. The new head is wired in and is awaiting fitting into the replacement head assembly and fixing on to the X-carriage. Manual bed-levelling lacks precision, but is functional. +**State:** Unused for some time. Head has been recently rebuilt using reprinted carriage head and new hothead [21/03/21].
