Can you please make the encoder availaible for purchase?
Hey Phillip, there are very rare instances where an encoder needs to be replaced so we don’t have it readily available on our store (mm3d.co/spare-parts), but if you would like to purchase one, please send us a message at support@mosaicmfg.com.
