DIY CoreXY 3D Printer Rook 2020 - More options for everyone!

[@stonefarmer3005]

Yea!! Now to make it to fit a 500x500 bed!

[@GigaVids]

I was going to say the same thing

[@Gornak87]

I am planing to make a ender 3 bed version when i have time

[@ricardoxperts]

​@@Gornak87 don't forget to share the files

[@Gornak87]

@@ricardoxperts As always, ill put them on my printables

[@jmelwak3]

Yes please😂

[@kanrogcreations]

Thanks for trusting me with the design for this, was really fun! Now i just need to build it 😎

[@vash469]

easiest one to build.... say less I am very torn what printer to make rook mk1, the 100, the Rook 2020 but this one does look pretty easy to build. I'm a noob still imo. I'd like a bigger print area but I guess could just change out the extrusions. 👍 great job sir

[@bcarden133]

This is the one that's going to get me to build a rook. Infinite expandability. 😍

[@amani576]

Agreed. I thought the normal rook was cool, but wasn't really a fan of its construction (personal thing more than an actual critical thing). But I'm actively working on getting stuff to print this. Bought some Sparta3d Sparkle ABS for it this morning.

[@marcusone1]

Would love to see you modify the bed so that it isn't cantilevered. As I find many of those have issues with holding level (on the lever, as well as "left/right" as the rods or rails can allow tilt (different heights). A "trident" style is my favorite, but even just a dual lead screw/belt system would work better than the cantilever imo

[@Rolohaun]

for a printer this size cantilevered is fine but yes my other printers will use 3 point support like trident

[@kanrogcreations]

You would need to design a new bed-frame, but the motor-mounts and idlers on z can be put anywhere. Simply print two more z-motor-mounts and adapt your bed to suit. Using 4 linear rods is simple too, 2 more rods and 4 more of the brackets for them.

[@witchdoctor88]

Great to see a design evolve like this.

[@OsioPandaPeludo]

NIIIICEEEE! this Rook 2020 is perfect for ABS parts... looking forward for an enclosure modd🥰

[@davy0537]

Impressive! And holy your growth has been crazy... I remember when I was asking you diode questions for the trident lol

[@Rolohaun]

ya the Rook helped with that!

[@forsakenrider]

this is EXACTLY what I wanted! excited!!!!!!

[@Gulsifer]

Amazing job Rolo and Kanrog👌

[@markm49]

Brilliant work - going to have to try this one.

[@rarespaul9503]

this is the coolest design yet, great work

[@AndrewBoraas]

being able to print the parts for another one is great, also love the filament color.

[@Soravia]

I solved dual or multi Z threaded rod alignment issues for many Z bed print setups. Key is to allow the Z threaded rod to move to and from relative to direction all around but not spin the Z screw nut. Z screw nut is bolted to L shaped bar. L bar lifts the vertically tall bars bolted to the bed rail carriers. The key is to not bolt L bar to flat bar. This allows movements of Z screw on threaded rod, but it will not spin. All spinning movements of threaded rod will move the z screw up and down.

[@Rolohaun]

this is belted Z it does not have a lead scew

[@danzo5521]

I can't believe you solved that! You are so smart

[@bridget_clinch]

Sweet as, my new workspace is less than 6 months out now, can't wait to start working on my next corexy

[@mitsubishimakes]

Brook walked so Rook 2020 could run. Great to see an extrusion-based frame again

[@lolzlarkin3059]

I'd like to see you design a core xy idex printer. Or maybe dig into whatever you call that design the annex printers have.

[@Rolohaun]

I do have a CroXY design called Defiant, there will be videos soon!

[@76777c]

Really like the mk1 but wow this one really cleans it up for me.

[@chipackerknecht9596]

Glad to see 2020 version/Bijou again. With the merging of Rook 2020 and Bijou, there is a loss of Klicky Probe. Any mod yet for Rook Toolhead and Klicky Probe?

[@Rolohaun]

not really needed for a 120x120 bed, Rook 2020 has a endstop on the Z were Bijou did not

[@vash469]

just put together my frame.... it's so tiny 😂 can't wait to continue...

[@BenjaminJSnider]

This is ideal for me because I have a bunch of 2020 extrusions I need to use so I'm thinking using what 2020 I have and printing the rest. Less printing and the additional sturdiness will make a difference!

[@OrlandoColonJr]

Awesome build! I'd like to see/find something with a bigger print bed. Maybe a 300mm x 300mm.

[@Rolohaun]

There are users on my discord building bigger versions

[@OrlandoColonJr]

@@Rolohaun Thanks 👍 I will be sure to check it out.

[@Shoo8601]

Another great job!

[@TonyGrant.]

Just found this! Very nice! Subscribed!!! What was the total cost of this build? I'd like to build one with a larger build space but would need to work out a better bed arrangement than the counter levered one here.

[@Rolohaun]

defiantly join my discord, lots of people talking about larger versions, cost can be 200ish USD or less if you have some spare parts

[@chrislosada6701]

Thanks for all the great work man, I tried doing this for a while but got stuck. Ill dev keep my eye on this one

[@andybrice2711]

This is a very interesting project. It looks really solid and yet relatively simple to build.

[@brokencreationlordmegatrol3037]

I’m honestly pretty interested in making one of these but a little bigger :O more ender sized or even bigger

[@joe_duck]

Ender size would be nice.. parts would be cheap as well :)

[@brokencreationlordmegatrol3037]

@Russell Phelan oh sweet. Now that I am interested in. Buy an old buster ender and some spare parts and boom . Big rook

This will be my 5th printer built, my very first core-xy 😍

[@joesephrodrigues]

Any idea on ballpark self-source cost?

[@Rolohaun]

rough price is on the BOM, around 300 USD

[@joesephrodrigues]

Thats fantastic! Great work on this 👏🏼

[@billylake5999]

You mentioned that the Zrods are now adjustable? I need then about 2mm closer together to get a smooth bed.. simple fix is to file the extrusions; is there a better way?

[@Rolohaun]

the rods mounts can go anywhere on the extrusion you only need the back m5 you can leave out the side ones if you need to slide it over

[@billylake5999]

I might print like 1 and 2mm shims just to still keep it looking good.. I wish I had better CAD skills I would just make one side longer in 1mm steps to get exactly what I need... thanks for the great work and I look forward to building this great little machine..

[@billylake5999]

Spacers worked perfect bed is smooth as butter with 0.8 spacers on both sides..😊

[@Ender_Wiggin]

This reminds me a lot of the Tiny-m. Basically a Voron 0.1 with 2020. What does this do differently/better than the Tiny-m?

[@Rolohaun]

it's cheaper, and uses less parts so great for beginners

[@ClintonCaraway-CNC]

This looks very interesting.

[@fazrulrusdi3709]

Great works. 🎉🎉

[@omnitechs6364]

great job!!!!

[@76777c]

Just to confirm, the fabreeko kit will get this done but just needs the bolts, t nuts, and extrusions to complete? (And rookery parts/mod)

[@Rolohaun]

yes, I do believe Fabreeko will have a frame kit for this!

[@hellothere312]

sweet exactly what i was wanting to do next, thanks alot. quick question... i know nothing about the serial request videos. how do i get mine for my mk1? Do i tag you in the video? sorry if its a dumb question but its all new to me

[@Rolohaun]

you submit a ticket on my discord and I will issue one

[@mitsubishimakes]

Now this I can get behind!

[@Bukton5000]

Awesome build! I'm looking forward to building this one here. I can't wait for the All Wheel Drive or AWD mod for this.

[@ablinken0212]

what filament material is recommended? would pla or petg hold up or would it need to be asa or abs?

[@Rolohaun]

pla is fine

[@corlissmedia2.0]

What I like: The Rook Emblem on the print head.

[@psrowser]

Will the Rook180 also get a 2020 frame?

[@Rolohaun]

I don't have any plans to do that, I am redesigning the frame for MK1 though

[@tootzreyes]

Yeah the 180 on 2020 will be more attractive as well. Please help support it. Thanks!

[@krzysiu182]

Great project! :) i have a question about X Y axis movement. Usually we have separare motor for X and for Y, but here both motor are controlling XY axis toghether. Can you tell me, is it some specific software or motherboart to make this? Thank you :)

[@Rolohaun]

this is called CoreXY and any 3d printer firmware supports it

[@TheRobojay]

what kind of accelerations can you get with this?

[@Rolohaun]

I have not tested it. I would expect 10k to 15k easy

[@frankhovis]

Does this have to be made 'square' or is it just a matter of using longer 2020 where needed, with longer belts etc. ?

[@Rolohaun]

No it can be scaled, very easy for z. A little different for X and y. There is a scalable version on discord you can ask about

[@brandoneich2412]

I wonder if a 300mm 2020 frame would work for the rook 180 (prusa mini bed)

[@Rolohaun]

it would be a cool mod, 300 might be too small, I plan on redesigning the printed from for the 180

[@bramsetyo6628]

❤nice version . i think i will build this model and mod it using junk part form beoken bed slinger print 🙏

[@andrewb9774]

Do you think it would be difficult to incorporate strain gauges as the Z sensor?

[@Rolohaun]

something I might try in the future

[@lolthekidison]

Gosh dang. I just build my rook. Now I have to rebuild It.

[@lolthekidison]

Gulsifers rookery is amazing. The bed is an awesome edition to be able to print on the rook you already know we printing it all on the rook. Great add Kanrog

[@Soravia]

To make the belt grip better on stepper movements, add two smooth pulley to left and right of belt next to gear pulley. It will wrap the belt more around the gears, providing more traction.

[@Rolohaun]

I haven't found that necessary on this printer

[@justice0952]

Does this support the same mods as Bijou? (Klicky, Direct Drive etc.)

[@Rolohaun]

not it does not, however I have no doubt there will be plenty of mods for it

[@Hugocraft]

I started with a Monoprice maker select V2 bed slinger with 200x200 bed and I kept upgrading it until the main board died so I got a SKR Pico V1.0 for it but haven't gotten the board powered up yet with a pi since I've never used Klipper before. Since then I have a prusa mini and sovol sv06 printer that both print really well but the maker select is sitting dormant for years now. I keep debating on re-using as much as I can from the "maker select" to convert it to a core xy printer then I stumbled on the rook a few weeks ago then "THE 100" recently. I really want to re-use my 200x200 bed so wondering how good/bad it would be to scale up the rook 2020 then I wonder how hard it would be to convert to round rails to re-use more "maker select" parts. Then I think I should just sell the "maker select" as is project and the working prusa mini to fund a Bambu Lab P1P. Maybe sell the SV06 too and just have 1 printer.

[@Rolohaun]

users are already talking about larger version on the discord, that size would be fine

[@MrPanaramuh]

If you're looking at a bambu, take a look at the new Creality K1. Has lidar and Creality is claiming it's faster than the bambu. It's corexy, starts at $599, does a 13 minute benchy in ABS. I could go on and on about the features but I'd suggest it. Looks like a sweet competitor. The k1 max, the bigger boy, has a 300x300mm build volume!

[@chinmayasham3568]

How is this different from the voron zero?

[@Rolohaun]

Cheaper, made to print PLA, great for beginners. V0 is for printing ABS, more advanced build

[@vash469]

what filament is recommended for parts?

[@Rolohaun]

PLA or ABS if you able but PLA will work fine

[@vash469]

@@Rolohaun that's what I figured....are there recommend print settings in the build documents or on printables..... I literally paused on the print setting part lol 4 walls 30%

@@Rolohaun​ I suspected this thank you, I will try to source at least 2 T-slot for under those, I will probably swap them out from another printer if I can or print something to fit in the gap and make it flush. Loving your work so far on various printers, very inspiring, keep up the good work (y)

@@Rolohaun I did some looking on your discord and seems like people are already talking 😁 very excited! Very likely I will build one. I'm sure there's a way to scale it up a bit larger

Can you make a mod that converts ender 3's,and cr10's and other printers to a rook corexy? Lots of people are eager to convert their bedslingers to a corexy. Using parts from it as much as possible. That would be one of your most helpful project. Thank you .

there are some conversions already, in my opinion it is better to start over and build something with all the necessary parts first
