Thank MaddieG For your reply never heard about stepper dampers. Just wonder why 3D printer companies are not using them?

Just heard the sad news about Printrbot. What about support, geeting spare parts for Printrbot users?

Hi Thanks for your replies. I’m planning to do some test 3D printing this weekend. Hope to get back with some results.
