I am really loving the Overture PLA+. I run it hot and it prints like a dream. I used to be an ABS fan, but the PLA plus is just as strong and not brittle at all.

Here are my temp settings. They may seem high for PLA, but I run my printer in the basement which is a bit cooler and the PLA+ is meant to be run hot. These settings work flawlessly for my printer and that filament.

I haven't seen anyone use those on the 650s in my experience. it's more of a 1050/1100 thing.
For my 650 I did the 2 bearing kits and the light weight ball to fix that powder issue. Powder doesn't go anywhere now no matter how fast I move the handle.

ps: Really excited on your new 9mm release you were talking about, I have the original ammomike print all done and using it, but curious to see how yours does and will probably change over to it.
She's done! I said 32 hours. Ended up being 31:59:05. 8-)

I need to print some other parts to complete my testing based on the changes, but I am confident in the main body at this point. If you are looking to get started I can post it out there. Otherwise I should be able to post the entire new package later tonight. I have renamed all the file names to make them much more descriptive and organized. Anyway, let me know.
Awesome sauce, I just received and finished putting my Mk3s together last night. Need to do test prints and familiarize myself with it and start printing and assembling this collator. My press should be arriving this week. I can't believe it's all finally coming together!
If you ever get a chance, try some of the prusament filament. Awesome stuff but expensive. Look forward to your results with the Mk3
Sounds fun! I checked out the link to your favorite Overture.......was disappointed. It might be wonderful, but it seems to be non-existant in any other color. I even went to their own website......and I couldn't even find "Plus" PLA. That seems to be an Amazon....only....and only in Dillon blue......that would clash totally in my reloading room! ;)

See what I mean?.....black would be welcomed, and red is fine.....Christmas colors! I know I'm a divergent....
Lee APP is the newest addition.....love the idea of a bullet/case feeder on a single stage press! I plan to install a horizontal square tubing from my existing vertical 4' to the end of my Summit press. The idea is to mount bullet and case feeders to be slid along the rail to feed all my presses from the Pro Chucker 7 to the Summit. Would have never thought of doing this.....then the Lee APP came.....and a picture of RedlegEd's bench.....Ed thought of Horizontal first!:)
I got lucky and seemed amazon had 2 rolls left of the blue. GWS! Very nice set up! I could see why the blue would clash.
EDIT:
GWS. check the overture site for pla professional. It’s the same thing..they have a green but it’s sold out
