3DPrinting

AnyCubic Chiron. Still going after many years, though sometimes I do need to spritz the plate with cheap hairspray to help adhesion

All my printing is done at my local makerspace. We have:

3 x Ultimaker 2+ 3 x Ultimaker 2+ extended Formlabs Form 3b Markforged mkII

Most of my printing is in the Ultimakers but I use the form 3b for anything small or that needs that extra find detail. I havent found a good reason to use the Markforged yet (the consumables are quite expensive) but should be fun when the need arises :)

Ender 3 with BL-TOUCH, that BTT drop in replacement board with silent steppers (the first model), geared extruder, Micro Swiss nozzle, Creality glass bed, unholy loud Sunon fan on the block and a few printed extras.

Then a Monoprice Mini Select v2 with an aluminum extruder. Both have their Raspberry with camera and Octoprint.

Also a super dusty Elegoo Mars 2.

Prusa Mini+

Creality CR10 - Almost every aspect of it was upgraded.

• Control box delete, relocated electronics/psu under the frame.
• Dual z leadscrews with anti-backlash nuts and oldham couplers
• Linear rails for XY Axis
• Bigger XY stepper motors
• HeroMe Gen 7: Dual 5015 cooling fans
• Nocuta 40mm hotend fan
• Noctua 40mm electronics fan
• BLTouch
• Orbiter v2.0
• Spider 3.0 hotend w/ MicroSwiss .4/.6 Nozzle
• SKR E3 Mini V3
• Raspberry Pi (OctoPrint)
• Removable PEI Sheet -Solid Bed mount

I can print just under 190mm/s at volumetric flow rates of 20-25mm3/s. Also gonna try out those CHT nozzles and see if they can help with flow rates too.

I am planning on getting a lighter y carriage and lighter alu bed and see if i can go faster

Also upgrading to an AC powered bed. Probably going to leave it with the 12v PSU, once i get the AC powered bed.

Hotend doesn't take long to heat up unlike the bed almost 16-18 mins to 90c.

I will probably be getting a prusa mk4 or BambuLabs x1c as my next printer then a Voron. Once I get one of these my Prusa Mini will be converted to coreXY.

I'm printing with a heavily modified Ender 3, a heavily modified CR-10 V3, and a Anycubic Mono 4k.

I usually refer to the Ender 3 and CR-10 V3 as, "The printers formally known as Ender 3 and CR-10 V3," due to the amount of modifications to them both.

All of them do a fine job for stuff in their wheelhouse and I dig them all.

Wanhao i3 Duplicator was my first printer. Used it for ever but I finally gave up on it after countless hours modifying and upgrading it.

Bought a p1p and holy shit is this thing amazing. I should have done this so much sooner.

Just built and enclosure for the p1p, and I am going to salvage what I can from the i3 and make a voron 0.2

Heavily modified Geeetech A10M - no longer prints in two colours but it's using better quality parts than stock

MP Mini Delta V1 - I will be going down the rabbit hole of calibration and mods for this printer at some point, it isn't great due to the areas where monoprice/malyan had cheaped out on

Ender 5 Pro with a few upgrades. 3DTouch sensor was the first upgrade I bought. Currently running a Hero Me Gen 7 toolhead with dual 5015 blower fans and a 4020 hotend cooling fan that I'm running at a lower voltage to reduce noise. Got an Orbiter 2.0 extruder mounted in direct drive which I love, great little extruder. V6 Clone All-Metal Hotend with a standard 0.4mm nozzle for now, but looking to get a CHT soon. I also recently got a spring steel textured PEI build plate, massive improvement over the stock floppy surface, I should have upgraded sooner. In my quest for less noisy printing, I've replaced the PSU and mainboard fans with two 120mm PC fans, works great so far.

The motion system is really the bottleneck now, it seems the limit is around 150mm/s with 1250mm/s^2 acceleration which is lower than Ender 5 Pro's I've seen on the internet, any higher than that and I get layer shifts. I'm looking to do the ZeroG Mercury conversion in the future.

I backed a kickstarter for Mingda magician X, it’s been working just fine as first cheap printer. I’m looking at prusa new model for my next

Ender 3 max neo, how do you check the number of hours ?

Ender 3 pro. Never had any issues with it really. I replaced the motherboard with a skr mini pretty early on, and changed it to direct drive. Running klipper on a pi 3. Sure it's not the fastest, but it works very well for me.

AnkerMake M5

MK3s with an MK4 ordered. My wife also recently got an Anycubic Photon D2

Makerbot replicator 2. Old as hell but still gets the job done for my limited purposes.

Ender3 v2 running Klipper with a BLTouch and a Micro Swiss NG extruder.

I'm running a Prusa Mini at home, and a Markforged Mark Two and Ultimaker S5 at the office. I've been considering a MK4 for home, but I don't really use my Mini enough to justify it.

Flashforge Creator Pro (Modded to single E3d V6 Hotend), Voxelab Aries, Voxelab Aquila, SUNLUT3, Ender 5 S1, Ender 2 Pro, Kingroon KP3S Pro S1 (I currently have a love hate with this one).

Have another Ender 2 Pro sitting waiting for mods, and a Monoprice Ultimate 2 waiting for a custom flash.

I think the next one will be a custom from the groud up build. I want something large.
