Here are some FAQs, updates, and disclaimers - 08/30/2020:

- I removed upgrade #9 - Lead screw stabilizer. Details in the video description. I'm sorry for including this one, I'm honestly a newbie at this and didn't know of the issues around this upgrade. thank you all for educating me on this and sharing resources with me.

- Cost for all the upgrades (not including the raspberry pi): $138

Q: Why did you buy a 3D printer just to print upgrades?!?
A: Because I'm a gooof.... and I just like to get the upgrades all over with at the start so afterwards I can focus on my projects and not have to worry about printing issues. In fact, just to make sure I don't get addicted to making upgrades, I'm forcing myself to make at least 2 videos that are non-upgrade related before I make the part 2 video for this.

Q: When is part 2 coming?
A: I'm still waiting for a few upgrade parts to arrive in the mail and working on a few other projects at the moment so it'll take a while. I'll give updates in my next few videos.

Q: What's your printing profile? Can you share it?
I'm also using that profile for PETG too with just modified temperature settings.

Q: Why would you do this when the Ender 3 v2 and CR-6 SE already have a lot of these upgrades pre-installed?
A: Because when I bought the Ender 3 Pro, the v2 and CR-6 SE hasn't been released yet :(
I still really like the ender 3 pro but I would also highly recommend the Ender 3 v2 if you're looking to buy

Q: Why the baby?
A: Why not the baby?

I'll add more as more questions come in. Cheers!

The joke "buy a 3d printer, print your own 3d printer, refund the bought printer" is getting more and more real.

[langleyt]

There's something SO satisfying about the fact you're 3D printing parts for your 3D printer

[integza]

I really love the way you edit, your videos just flow like a superfluid

[couscouskingpin]

This has got to be the most well put together, clean video I've seen on upgrades. This was SUPER helpful.

[failtolawl]

"shouldn't we fix this design issue?"

"no, the user will use our product to fix the design issue"

[Tosti_bakker]

How did I not see you before? Your editing, jokes and overall explanations are so well done! Hope to see more of you dude!

[That_Guy]

I've never said this in the tens of thousands of videos I've watched on YouTube, but this guy's editing is CLEANNNN. Thoroughly impressed and enjoyed it greatly, as well as really really good content.

Well done!

[Swinging_S_Lasers]

You probably don't check this anymore, but I just got my Ender 3 Pro and it's birthday is also 4/28, just 2023. Kind of neat.

[printer]

Edits and music and appearance are all just so This is why me and everyone else keep rewatching it.

[TechTune]

Watched this video over 10 times by now, so much better quality then the average youtuber with way more subs. Also very straight to the point.

[BrandonDuckett]

Your editing and sound design are next level. like at 5:11 when the tools appearing in the drawers each make unique appropriate sounds, loved it.

[CaspPoddivro]

It’s really awesome to see these machines working, it’s like creating matter out of thin air, I love 3D printing

[peter.]

This is the best 3d printing video I've seen since I've gotten my ender 3

[StrixFPV]

Your editing is just simply amazing. After watching an unimaginable amount of 3d printer videos yours takes the cake. By far.

[droneanna]

3D printer upgrades is one part, but your video editing skills are "God Level"

[DavidWarrior]

“Once that’s complete you’ve got yourself a new fridge magnet, yeeaah!” 😂😂

[nypigeon]

I don't even own a 3D printer but his content is just that interesting

[jlee]

Everybody talking about how he added LED lights and it's going to be as bright as the screen, not noticing the switch he installed that lets him turn them off while the unit is still running.

[rawjaat]

I'm in the market for a new printer and I've watched multiple vids for ender mods and THIS video compiled ALL the best mods, while keeping the video short, and adding some dope music. You get my respect, my subscribe, and I'm gonna get this printer now.

update: order placed, printer, mod 19, 21, & 22 on the way
update 2: I got the 3d touch, which is a knockoff of the way better BL touch. DO NOT BUY THE 3D TOUCH. The measurements it takes are so inaccurate that parts of your bed will be too high while other parts are too low, so it's basically useless. The BL touch is a bit more expensive, but worth it!
