@engikeneer @jens55 I rebuilt the hot end and replaced the droopy fan mount I'm running a tune now and everything seems to be going smoothly. Thanks for all your help!

@engikeneer im not above a bonehead move like that i'll take another look i have a bunch of these guys that i haven't assembled yet so i'll try one of those

@jens55 No worries. Hey thanks for spending the time to help me out I really appreciate it, I'll keep tinkering.

@jens55 I've been tweaking the m307 non stop so the notes aren't up to date

@jens55 heres my config should have started with posting it

@jens55 as for dropping the the supply from 24v to 12v idk.

@jens55 the board im using is a duet 3 6ch and the heater for the hot end is on out 1

@jens55 I'm running 24v the board sensors are reading Vin: 23.8v V12: 11.9 and i just checked my receipt from fillistruder and the cartridge from the kit I bought is a 30 amp 24v heater

@jens55 the part cooling fan picture left with the shroud DOES NOT come on unless i mess with the fan control on the main dashboard. the hot end fan pictured on the right and drooping slightly (OK alot) comes on if the hot end gets over 50C
