FYI - if you are waiting for an M2 or have just received one, there are ready to print models on the sd-card. Please print at least one of these to insure your machine is working properly. The Sasquatch is always a fine choice.

Specs (layer height, feed, material used, travel speed, and print time) please.

PLA is the material I used (which, <3 for shipping it with that!). All the rest of that wizardry is whatever Rick has it set to when he generated the files.

Jay - the basic information is in the .g file, which you can download and print your own, and is at http://makergear.wikidot.com/m2-sample-prints .  The full sample profile.ini will be posted on the wiki soon.

Is there a link to the gcode file?

; layer_height = 0.2
; perimeters = 3
; solid_layers = 3
; fill_density = 0.2
; nozzle_diameter = 0.35
; filament_diameter = 1.75
; extrusion_multiplier = 1
; perimeter_speed = 70
; infill_speed = 90
; travel_speed = 300
; extrusion_width_ratio = 0
; scale = 1
; single wall width = 0.49mm

A really clean print and using a sane 0.2mm layer height. Is the M2 using Sprinter or Marlin?

And Ross what does this mean? "(which, <3 for shipping it with that!)"

He means that he is happy, because we shipped a spool of PLA with his M2.

It means I prefer PLA over other available plastics.
