    Hey guyz,
    Found this good writeup on obtaining more stable temps for the hotends.
    Its really nice because if you use the latest version of second release of marlin you can set it in to action with one simple M command: M303
    It will help you calculate the appropriate PID settings.
    I have not tried it yet but I do have a lot of temp shifts I am ready to get rid of.
    When I get the new extruder and the new marlin installed (with the PhlatBOT settings) I will post what I have, unless someone else beats me to it :)

    Here is the post

    p.s. this post gets a little in depth for a new 3D printer owner, and to be honest its really a little too early for these kinds of changes. This is not something you have to do at all, but may be something you would like to look into down the road.
    I just wanted to make sure that i got it posted before I forgot :)
