Creality contest submission: experimental dual extrusion system which actually works!
Proper Printing
In this video I show my submission to the Creality Modification Masters contest. The mod is an experimental dual extrusion system with independent hotends which doesn't require a servo motor. This is something I wanted for quite some time now and I think that this is a nice thing to submit. This was quite the journey and I thought of giving up several times, but in the end it turned out better than I could have imagined! I hope you like this idea and this video, have fun watching and have an awesome day!
