Added a few 'ease of use' items to my build courtesy of the Voron community printer mods. I added magnetic clips to the panel corners and snap latches to the panel mid sections. Also added 270 deg door hinges. Now I can easily remove the panels for maintenance and completely open the doors.

both, of course...

The controller fans are rather loud so my first mod is to replace them with two Noctua NF-A6x25 FLX fans. The Noctuas are quieter than original no-name fans I originally installed. I can feel almost as much air exiting the other side as before even though they are spinning at 3000RPM instead of...

Same feeling I had when I first fired up mine...no smoke is good...except at a Bar-B-Que...enjoy the ride

Second print was this so called torture test which the Voron handled just find...no stringing, overhangs are really good and it's fast. I haven't even tweaked the slicer profile yet and it is almost twice as fast as my Prusa MK3, the secand fastest printer I have. When it's working, which it is...

LOL 'bout the camera...I do need a close up lens. I don't have any exhaust, yet. The printer is sitting on my workbench in the garage besides orders don't bother me...I love the smell of ABS in the morning...it smells like victory...:)

First test print done...Voron Desing Cube printed with Hatchbox PLA. Took 1 hr 14 mins...According to my calibers, the cube on all sides is within a few hundredths of a mm of 30mm. Very good first layer. No ghosting or ringing. Nice smooth and even layers and no acne. I used Simplify 3D as...

Hot damn....it's alive and extruding filament at last...now to calibrate e-steps

son of a motherless goat...two problems... First, as I suspected because of some testing with a Nema 17 plugged into the PCB socket, my steeper wiring harness had two lines crossed at the Octopus plug. Damn I tripled check with a multimeter and still screwed it up...argghhh... Second, as...

I tried a experiment with a Nema 17 43mm pancake. When plugged directly to the Octopus board it worked fine. So I made an adapter so I could plug it in to the smaller JST socket on the SB PCB. It worked but not well. When I issued a extrude command, instead of the shaft slowly turning it...

yep...thanks

I'm posting my inquire here since I am building my 2.4 with a Stealthburner + CW2 and using a LDO Neam 14 36mm (LDO 36STH20-1004AHG) as the extruder steeper. I also use a 2-piece Hartk SB PCB. My 2.4 350mm build is almost finished. I am running through the 'Initial Startup Checks". All was...

well crap...I'm having extruder issues...received an error when I tried to extrude filament...may be a wiring or steeper issue not sure...the reported error is "TMC 'extruder' reports error: DRV_STATUS: 000f00e0..."

After installing the two side panels I decided to add a Pi Cam to the build chamber. I had a unused one on the shelf so I printed a mount and installed the cam. I placed it in the lower front right corner...later I may replace the Pi Cam with Logitech Webcam I have setting on the shelf...here I...
