i think Joshua is both right and wrong here. right about it improvements no longer being easy, but wrong about it having to be easy for the community to function. communities are absolutely incredible and have done _much_ more difficult things than the next steps in 3d printing require. hell, there are people out there doing diy litography. anything is possible the important factor is the health of the community, not the difficulty of the problem. as long as there's lots of open cooperation the rest will fall into place

@3DJake_Official23 күн бұрын
Unfortunately no. I designed this a long time ago when I was not that well versed in 3d modelling and there are some issues with the design - non-manifold meshes and thin parts - so there are some holes in the parts which require a bit of post-processing and the parts are a bit hard to glue together because they are so thin. Because of this I wasn't that comfortable with uploading it. If you still want it we're totally ok with sharing so email us at global@3djake and ask for the model that was on the Halloween KZbin video.

Why no PLA? PLA tough has good impact resistance it seems
@3DJake_Official23 күн бұрын
Probably something I should have mentioned in the video: We don't need impact resistance for these parts, they're just sitting there and not hitting anything (besides the sensorless homing), what we do need is for parts to resist deformation. PLA is one of the worst filaments for this. Over time it will deform when force is applied, this is called mechanical creep. It is also a poor filament for the hotend, bed and motor mount parts as it starts to soften around around 55C. ABS and ASA perform a lot better in this regard.

if you want to cut cost in almost half ,then buy a used printer ive been thinking about buying 2 older enders and somehow smashing them up to get a voron style printer you can scavenge the aluminum extrusions and the motors and probably the pullies and the bearings , that can offset the cost significantly ... i have a prusha style printer meaning i have rods ,i want to somehow convert it on the cheap to a voron style printer ..... im going to try to reuse everything , i want to substitute the aluminum extrusions and the rails for rods and lmuu8's and im still figuring out how to do it .... the printer doesn't need to know that its made of rods instead of extrusions !! pray for me plz as im about to ruin my only printer !!!

BTT HDMI5 is my go-to for klipperscreen. It's really handy to be able to reboot the printer, fix wifi, change filament, and so on. The super budget screen option would be an I2C OLED screen (see klipper docs for supported modules) and a rotary encoder, but you'll need to design your own housing.

Just might as well use the Ender 3 bed size. There are tons everyone in stock, it's got other compatible alternatives, and it would be a great upcycle or upgrade for anyone.

@SethHenderson27 күн бұрын
My first choice would be 180, but 165 would probably also work. I have a v0 and honestly I have a lot of prints where I am like "aww, it just slightly too small" and have to use a bigger printer. I might build the micron one day to get a small 180x180 build volume. The appeal of the micron to me is it fits in about the same footprint as the v0. If the tradeoff is "bigger printer footprint" for 180, I think I'd do 165 instead. (and be happy with it). The 180 build volume, and a 3 hour build time would be perfect for print farms, assuming cost being cheaper. As an enthusiast machine I think I'd love a tinkerable printer that size that's easy to put together too. Regardless of if its a 180 or 165 build volume printer. Side note, I immediately subbed after watching just a few seconds of your video, I really love the idea of this project! Edit: Opinion on the screen. I think a screen is a nice to have, but I agree with it not being necassary for a budget DIY printer. My v0 didn't even come with a screen. I added one because I wanted it, and I would probably add my own. For the base price I'd cut it.
@3DJake_Official26 күн бұрын
I know what you mean, I'm leaning to 180 too. For the screen, I think I will leave it out for the base version, for the larger printers I might use the Pad 7 to make things less complicated, no need for a Pi that way.

@@SethHenderson I like your input. It also makes me reflect on my own opinion about thr bed size and other parts. Using parts that are readily available should resuce the cost of thr build. E.g. Ender 3, 3 Pro, 3 v2 can be found for $100 - i just bought an Ender 3 pro for $40 bucks with upgraded 4.4.2 MB (i know it's an old MB, but better than stock). That is over $150 in materials in most BOM. Bambu parts seem to be inexpensive enough, like their USD$30 hot end and USD$11 swappable all metal tips. Their 180² heat-bed is like $40 . I too gotten myself into the "awrg - the printer is a tad too small fory model...", so i relate.
