decided to go and try can bus

[3dCase]

Since Amazon needs to sell me 49 euro worth of things, I decided to add a can bus board to have free shipping
We will see how this will work out and if it looks too iffy I might simply stick with having too many wires
Bigtreetech EBB 36 can V1.2, TMV2209 on board, based on STM32G0B1CBT6 Chip,
Anybody got tips? Will not do it immediately because need some more parts first for my cpap fan and new toolhead which I am designing.
Should be fun to try but I already have the distinct feeling I need more items before I can work with can bus.

Looks a very good guide, will use that to learn more about it.

Did you do this as well or did you use another system?
If you know the answer, does the EBB36 can board support pure USB as well?
And if so, do I still need the U2C board as interface to the pi?
I have bought all these things already, just checking if I am on the right path or on the highway to hell?

I switched from CAN to Nitehawk using USB protocol.

I don't think the EBB36 can use USB for anything but flashing but I could be wrong.
Pretty sure you need the U2C.

So if you already had CAN, what was the reason you switched to USB?

USB is faster then CAN and I just like testing new hardware. I feel the USB is simpler as well.
