ender 3d printer corexy convert

This project was created on 07/06/2022 and last updated 12 days ago.

Description

I love my Ender 3, but it's so 2018...
In this build i will try to convert it to a coreXY printer with minimum cost, and add Klipper to it.

Notes: my Ender 3 was not a "stock Ender" i had done few modifications on it
- Dual Z upgrade.
- Direct drive extruder
- Board remplacement by a SKR 1.3 with TMC driver.

However, i think this build can work without that.

This is quite an interesting and involved project. I recently decided to bite the bullet and buy a desktop CNC mill, as I need to cut and shape more than print. 3D printing is however on my list, and this may just give me some ideas on how to improve whatever 3D printer I do eventually get (I Was looking at Ender 3 myself, yes they are old, but so very hackable)...

Good luck with the rest of the project:)

  Are you sure? yes | no

Tanguy wrote 07/29/2022 at 09:47 • point

Yes, I think the Ender 3 is still a good first 3D printer, and used ones get really cheap. (I got this one for 100e)

Thanks !
