Upgrading Everything on my Ender 3

My most ambitious video yet.

Check out PCBWay! Their SLS 3D printing is incredible.

Printhead Part (Thangs Link)

I’ve uninstalled the mains bed for safety concerns, I’ll consider reinstalling it in the future once I receive proper parts. I appreciate everyone’s feedback on it. I’d like mention that this videos purpose was to try and upgrade “everything” not upgrade the most impactful parts. It’s not the best performance per dollar, there are more videos out there covering what the best value upgrades are. I can always recommend a leveling probe, mainboard upgrade (I’ve heard good things about kevinakasam’s dual z belt mod) and a hotend and extruder upgrade. There’s plenty to choose from, I’ll try and do a deep dive (with justification) on the topic in the future.

That little 220V silicone bed looks dangerous, bro.

It's nice to look at a fellow maker that has no end-stops on creativity and fear of poking a multimeter in there. Keep up the good work.

Awesome video! Amazing editing/transitions as well!

Very professional looking video, Tommy - fascinating! 😀

Great video, doing something similiar with my ender 3 max! So happy to see some similar ideas in here!

[maiorciprian]

Mad editing skills, mate! Keep those V-wheels rolling!

[pooppyybuhhole]

I might have to do this to one of my Enders! I haven’t touched any of them since I got my X1C but would love to see how much they could be overhauled with upgrades. Great video and editing!

Hey I did the same dual Z mod I recommend getting a belt to keep the motors synchronized. the 616mm is a little tighter than the 618mm but I use the 618 on my printer and it works perfectly.
or you could do what I did on my V2 and add a 5th stepper motor driver to the stock motherboard.

Nice upgrading my ender 3 soon hehe thanks for this

[polar_baer]

You basically made all the features that the S1 pro has, I like it. Good job.

I modified my Ender 3 V2 Neo with linear rods on Y, linear rails on X, double Z that is going to go for belted Kevinakasam, and Titan + V6 extruder with CHT nozzles and 5015 6000rpm blower.
I think that with Marlin MRiscoC with Input Shaping, Linear Advance, Junction Deviation, the best compromise for quality and speed is 150mm/s for cheap filaments and 4000mm/s² acceleration.
I obtain near 37min benchy and I consider myself satified.
For speed the only way is a CoreXY but you'll need also hyper PLA or new hyper PETG now near 20-30% more expensive than traditional filaments.

That effect at 2:40 was nice. I haven't seen that before. Good video!

i love this sm editing wise very scott yu jan core plus 10/10 cam work (PS PLEASE TELL ME IF I WROTE HIS NAME WRONG)

A question for the heated bed, would you guys say switching the heated bed is worth it on the ender 3 neo, or should i apply an insulation pad as i have seen multiple people run?

[diegojosephia]

And another question, i tried multiple times to install octoprint and klipper on the pi, it is an pi 3b original(soo not like bananapi but a genuine raspberry) but i have tried it 4 times already and it keep hanging on zeroconf and i have waited 15 min to eveb 3 hours without luck. Anybody know how to resolve this issue

[saimon]

So, i already instaled klipper on my ender 3, but i want to increase print speed, but i dont have too much money, what do you recomend with low price to speed up the print?

[dpm]

where did you source your linear rail? Ive thought about doing rail upgrade as well but keep getting told i need to find a reliable source

[VezD]

Nice upgrade :) At this point though i think its best to put that money on a better printer to start with... except for one thing: you learn a lot doing all those upgrades :) Nice videos and well made mate

[marcusdionne]

What ended up being the fix for klipper screen? I previously re imaged my pi and I also went yay no errors but now i have no screen....just displays the console.
