Sadly, no, I haven't finished this project. Yet. Finals week starts on Monday, then I'm done with school until January. I hope to have some time over the holidays to work on this and get everything sorted out. I'll post a reply (for reals this time, promise!), once I make some progress on this.

Thanks @LukasM, I made good progress during my break, but I'm not done, yet. I think I've got all the necessary printer parts designed, tweaked and printed, I just need to install them and test them, and probably tweak them again... I think I mentioned somewhere above, that I'm going to put...

Enough Fusion screen caps, here's some pics I took while testing the fit of things: It looks like each SB will be able to cover ~198mm of the bed on the x-axis, which is roughly 85% of a 235mm bed. I didn't do the math ahead of time, but I was hoping for at least 90% coverage. I could get a...

Progress is being made. I printed out my original X-axis motor mounts, and as I was getting ready to assemble them I realized that having the x & z axis motors on the same belt won't work. It seems pretty obvious now, but I got pretty far into it before I realized it wouldn't work. Oh well...

I got my E2 dialed in earlier this week and I started printing mirrored Stealthburner and Galileo 2 parts. The SB on the left is the regular one, and the mirrored one is on the right. I'm pretty happy with how they came out, they have to be the sexiest hot glue guns I've ever seen. Plus, the...

You know what they say, "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans." I was hoping to have the Galileo extruders put together this weekend and have some progress pics to post, but things didn't go according to plan. In stead of using ASA as I originally planned, I decided to use some...

And here's the current status of my IDEX EW. I hope to be printing parts in a week or so. I want to figure out the XZ blocks before I start making parts.

I've been feeling (overly?) ambitious and I decided that instead of the relatively easy task of converting my E3 Pro to a Switchwire using boubounokefalos resources, I'd complicate things by making an IDEX Enderwire. Why? I've got a Raise 3D E2 that is IDEX and being able to print with dual...

Turns out the problem was the idiot behind the keyboard. I upgraded from a SKR mini E3 V2 and the extruder enable pin is !PD2 on the V2. It's !PD1 on the V3. Somehow I managed to FUBAR this when I copied the .cfg file over.

Yeah, the heater is on, it ran the PID tune with no issues and I can manually push the filament through the nozzle. There is a line in the extruder config that sets the minimum extrusion temp, I've currently got it set at 0 as I'm planning on doing my e-steps once this gets resolved.

Like the title says, I just put a BTT E3 V3.0 in my 0.1 and now the extruder motor doesn't rotate. It homes fine, I can run a print and everything works, except the extruder and I've double-tripple checked that the is extruder plugged into the correct connection on the board. I saved my old...

As long as you have everything planned out, I think you'll be fine. When I built my V0.1, I went with a bone stock setup with the intention of upgrading it later. I've got it running like a champ now and I don't want to tear it apart to do those upgrades...

I dug a bit more into this issue and I found the issue. The cheap brass nozzles I was using are MK8's with 5mm long necks, but the mosquito uses V6 nozzles with 7.5mm necks. The shorter MK8's left a small gap between the nozzle and the bottom of the hotend threaded hole, which allowed the molten...

I thought at one point Bondtech wasn't going to make 0.4mm nozzles, but I checked PrintedSolid, and they've got the 0.4mm in stock. I just ordered one, we'll see if that seals up my leak. No worries. I do have boron nitride paste, used it on the heater and thermister. It didn't even occur to...

Thanks for sharing, I'll keep this in mind when I get around to doing my V0.2 upgrade. (y)
