What are some of the questions we answered this week?

Which one’s better direct drive or boden tube?

I noticed when I print on my resin printer with white it tends to yellow when I put it under UV light. Is there anything I can do about that?

How do you guys clean your extruder drive gear (the one that over time builds up some residual filament in the teeth). What’s the easiest/quickest/simplest yet most efficient way?

I purchased a titanium heatbreak for my stock CR-10s and now the extruder is skipping while trying to print?

Would an unlevel tool head cause stringing?
