    Question How air tight is the trident enclosure?

    Even with filtration I'd probably not hang out around a printer while it's printing. VOCs are only part of the problem, you've also got microplastics in the air. Maybe with a VOC filter like Nevermore in the printer, and put the printer inside another enclosure with a HEPA filter running...

    Aluminium or titanium screws?

    If you remove the extruder and replace it with a Bowden setup you'll save way more weight than switching from steel to aluminum screws.

    Question Pros / Cons of Umbilical for Trident

    There was a post a couple days ago on Discord with a bunch of links. I just copied and saved them, haven't explored any yet. https://www.printables.com/model/235931-voron-trident-a-drive-cable-cover-with-pg7-cable-g...

    Your favorite mods?

    When I first built my Trident I was using 2.5mm i.d. PTFE tubing from the spool to the tool head. I swapped that for 3mm i.d. tubing after installing the Horseshoe and filament runs much more smoothly!

    Your favorite mods?

    Annex Engineering panel clips are the bomb. Tool-free, hardware-free, nothing stays on the frame so it can sit flat on that side if needed. Removable Doors hinges are great as well. Logan Fraser has several awesome mods. Inverted Electronics is great for Trident, no need to ever turn it...

    Who else is rocking leadscrew couplers in their Trident?

    Built my 300-300-300 Trident before the LDO kit came out. Used Logan Frasers stepper spacers to drop the z steppers below the deck. I used the ball-bearing trick in my couplers and made sure to leave the screws that attach the z-axis pieces to the leadscrew nuts. Any z-artifacts from using...

    Klipper LED effect

    Are there some examples of using LED_EFFECT for different statuses? I've looked thru the doc and have a basic effect on power up. But I'm still trying to wrap my head about doing stuff when homing, printing, heating up, etc. Like any good programmer I work best by ripping off someone else's...

    BigTreeTech Octopus V1.0 and V1.1 Information

    I have a Trident with Octopus. Just got some RGB LED strips to do case lighting. Is it possible to have three strips on different pins so they can do different patterns (if I wanted), PLUS have a rainbow LED on Stealthburner? Which pins can/should I use? Also ... the "nozzle" white LEDs on...

    What wire lengths do I need for my V2 or Trident?

    If you're a real cheapskate, cut a couple of wires to the specified lengths, run them and get an idea of how much you can shorten them (or how much more you need). You need to have your final placement of your electronics worked out though. Don't decide on minimum length wires then up and move...

    Trident is the best!

    Hey Tom! I just finished a Trident build coming from a Mendel90 (sturdy). Dunno about yours, but my Mendel90 was hard to tame. The bed/carriage is so heavy I had to tune down the speed/accel in Y; I even had to beef up my Y motor to a larger Nema17 with more torque to fling the bed without...

    How does one find non-official mods?

    There have to be dozens of non-"official" mods (that aren't in the VoronDesign github. Like I know Logan Fraser has some good ones in his own Github because I've used them after stumbling across them on the Discord. Is there some kind of index or mod reference for mods that don't have the...

    Welcome to the new Voron Forum!

    I'm so glad y'all did this. Discord is chaotic. Reddit is flaky (I've lost my accounts a couple times because apparently they can't tell "lots of users on a VPN" from brigading). And Facebook needs to die. So having another option is great!

    Trident is the best!

    I agree, Trident can't be beat!
