Thank you
We just got a great article in 3D Printing Industry today.

Some time ago we made Marvin of the week with the Colorful Marvin. https://www.3dhubs.com/talk/thread/colorful-marvin-awesome [DSC_0054S.jpg] Now we are making this way of printing available to everybody with the Diamond Hotend The Diamond Hotend is capable of printing with 3 different colors or…

It finally happened!! Our very first try at crowdfunding
We are now active with our Diamond Hotend on Kickstarter:
The Diamond Hotend - Single nozzle multi-color 3D printing by RepRap.me — Kickstarter
The Diamond Hotend is a single nozzle multi color/material hotend for 3D printers that gives y… -
We haven’t tried it yet, but we are fairly confident that it should be possible with materials in the same temperature ranges.
-
Yes, we intent to release it as open source when we have the final product ready. At the moment we have printed succesfully with PLA, HIPS, and ABS, and we will soon try out more type of filaments

Thanks
Well it’s a nozzle of our own design that is able to be feed with 3 X 1.75mm filament at the same time.
It’s all metal so it can take high temp. filaments.
Our current design uses bowden tube in order to keep the weight down on the printhead but we do have plans for a direct drive version… -
Thank you
We are mainly concentrating on getting the software and the right settings to work before we move to different materials.
But we have tried PLA, ABS and HIPS with no problem and we don’t see why it shouldn’t work with the other commonly used filaments as it is a all metal hotend. -
Yes it is designed to be mounted on any 1.75mm filament printer, depending on the size of the printer of course. The printer electronics must be able to handle 3 extruders. We use the RUMBA board in our development. There will be a basic mechanical mounting fixture on the hotend/nozzle and then i…

We will provide more info on the new nozzle soon. More pictures attached [DSC_0181.JPG] [DSC_0182.JPG]

We are currently working on a new type of nozzle that will make it easy to print in 3 colors and what better test object is there then the Marvin
We are still in the development phase and there is still some way to go with software and firmware but the hardware works.
