Congratulations Teddy! You were so determined to crack this challenge and create the first successful print on your Ultimaker and you have done just that! And this post got you to start using Twitter, which means I can no longer refer to you as “Teddy who doesn’t Twitter”.
Adam and Jason (@maxence) have you seen this?

That looks good! Also, I’m curious, what printer are you using, and how well has it been working? I upgraded a Printrbot Simple Maker’s kit to an 8x8x8 build area, with double the original precision and some other stuff, but I’m looking for options to reuse the parts from my upgrade on a box style build to get rid of all the vibrations I’m getting…
I am using an Ultimaker original with an E3DV6 hotend and aluminum build plate. It’s been working great aside from any usual issues any printer runs into. Next I will be connecting the steppers directly to the YX rods for a direct drive to eliminate the belt slipping I get on the smaller belts.

I’m using the E3DV6 full metal hotend and the ultimaker mount for it I found on Thingiverse that I had a friend of mine print in ABS for me.
