A fellow #reprap -er suggested that I print the original Tippy Top 1.0 by peterkernan the other day, and things went from there.
The two of us, Spec in irc / firebovine here, started hashing out what was working for each of our prints, and what didn't. We started to experiment with the models and decided to adjust a few things. Here are those adjustments to date.
Edit-10-Dec-2014:
Shortened the Shaft by 2 mm. By doing this the Tippy Top now turns on it's top every time.
Also printed one out in Nylon Bridge, shown above. This was printed at 245 °C | 40 mm/s | 0.200 mm Layer Height. Color was added by using sharpies at the extruder feed point. The Red sharpie appears the best. The Nylon Bridge sanded better than expected.
