Last December I started building the Mercury 1.1 from Zero G. This has been one of my longer builds but I am so happy with how it has turned out. For anyone looking to upgrade their Ender 5 or build a very capable CoreXY 3d printer this is a killer option.

FINALLY SOMEONE MAKES A VIDEO EXPLAINING WHAT THIS IS!!! Thanks, Daniel!

[ZeroGD]

Just got home from the US! What an amazing video. I couldn't explain it better myself. Much love to you and your family. It was great fun watching you build this and learning together as we did :D

[ThePrintHouse]

This is pretty sweet. The ender 5 has so many problems and this solves all of them!

[ivovass]

This is a very interesting proposition for an ender5 upgrade with a great community behind it.
The kits are a very good option, a cost breakdown of different combinations would've been great to see as this looks like it can easily add up and probably price match ready to go option

[hugoscreations]

do you have a link for the engine you showed at 10:38? id love to print it

[iancrawford]

I own a Merc and still watched this video haha! Good job. Great to see these awesome printers get a bit more airtime.

I’m currently converting my E5p into a mercury one with hydra. Awesome vid! Keep up the awesome work

[jeffharrison]

I had not heard of any of this stuff, so thanks!!

[clutchboi]

Just bought all the parts for this but I'm going all aluminum even with the hydra arms. Mellow makes an aluminum toolhead for this and also a water cooled extruder that their Goliath hotend hooks into. Also got a fystec lightweight gantry so I want to see how fast I can push this. Starting with a tool head blower fan but it seems running a duct to the tool head with a remote fan can cut even more weight 🤔. They also make milled out linear rails that could reduce even more weight from the gantry.

that have been super helpful
can i ask for the link of the orca profile 🙏
thx

[christoskaragiannis]

I did not know that was a thing! Maybe the ender 5 plus gathering dust is due for a coreXY revival!

[D_Printing]

A big speed increase as soon as that enclosed one is here

[karlmee]

This is cool, I might end up buying a ender 5 to convert into one of these. I originally wanted to get another ender 3 and do the switch wire mod on it but this makes more sense to me than converting a ender 3

[WhoKnowsWho]

Really nice bit of kit. My Ender 5 is pretty reliable as is but the conversion looks tempting.

[Poesghost]

I have an Ender 5 Plus and love it and hate it at the same time. When it's honed in, prints are great, however after each print I have to tune it up again.

I want this kit.

[Dom-drpl]

I just picked up a dirt cheap ender 5 pro to convert over! Been planning for a few weeks now. Excited to get going on it.

Very random question: What feet are you using on that electronics enclosure? I keep seeing the same looking ones on everyone's build, but I can't find any info about them on the ZeroG Bill of Materials. I've googled, I've watched YT videos, and searched reddit, but can't find any info. I've already printed the electronics enclosure, but I can't find any info about the feet to use!
Any help is much appreciated!

[PCBWay]

Thx so much for bringing us this great content! 🥳🥳

[peterr.]

Thx for the Info, i was about to start the build and modeled an enclosure by myself. Then I hold off until the new models are released. I spend so much time on their discord just to read the infos and showcases

[vinnnocc]

Been loving my merc build so far. Can’t wait to see what plans they have coming out
