Glad you liked it!

Fair point. To each their own...

Thanks! 👍

I will share it on Printables, and post the link here.

This is the cleanest I have ever had my 2.4 electronics bay. I have a similar EMS Frame in my Tridex, but it is printed in 4 pieces. It otherwise works exactly the same.

Thanks, will do!

I stumbled across this new BTT USB toolhead board while I was browsing their online store, and decided to order one and try it out. I can easily switch back to CAN Bus if the need arises.

Thanks Happy! Looking forward to my order arriving soon, then I can give you some more shoutouts in future videos.

It's held in place by 12 mount points around the periphery of the frame, as well as 2 mount points just front of centre which bolt into the bed extrusions. Each mount point uses 2x M3x8mm bolts to fix the frame to the mount point. I can't easily demonstrate this in text, but it is quite rigid. In theory, if Fizzy eventually releases the CAD for this one piece EMS Frame, it could be cut out of stronger materials, like aluminum.

@@oldguymeltsplastic That's what I had been thinking, getting the base water jet cut out of aluminum might be a worthwhile, or a way for others to make some money on an Etsy shop.

Have a look at this recent short video to see the lights in action in the dark! ruclips.net/user/shortsGNEQTpHbglo

Have fun!

Go for it!

M3 and M5 Cone Washers are available in several different colours from vendors on Amazon or AliExpress.

I haven't published them yet, because my Daylight on a Sticks were purchased from Amazon, and don't conform to the original Daylight on a Stick design. So the STL model I used may not fit yours. I am still happy to share the STEP file, if you don't mind possibly needing to mod them to fit yours.

@@oldguymeltsplastic sure I can try to see if I can make it work. I just need something to hold them in place. Thank you. I will send you a msg on discord.

Thanks, I am pretty happy with how it turned out!

I always have a protective earth connection running to the SSR in my builds. What I wasn't sure of is if the SSR requires the metal as a heatsink. If I have a fan at or near the SSR, I feel like it shouldn't ever be in danger of overheating.

The message has been passed along! ;-)

You and me both!

I’m actually working on a tool changer setup where I’m bringing the electronics out from under the 2.4 and putting them on the back. Once you have multiple tool heads loaded you won’t want to be flipping the printer over. Details of the current work done so far can be found in the discord.

I have a custom ACM deck panel inbound, but this smoked acrylic panel was supplied by LDO with the EMS frame, so I decided to install it. I have some printed plastic clips that should hopefully keep the acrylic warping to a minimum, but when it does, it will just be a bit of work to replace with the ACM panel.

Not my CAD to share, you would have to ask Fizzy himself. Not sure what agreement he has yet with LDO, as they were interested in possibly turning this into a product.

You're welcome!

Good question! I asked in the Voron Discord's #voronuser_mods channel about the latest and greatest in Z Joints technology, as I was planning a full tear down, and currently had Hartk's GE5C Z Joints installed. Hartk himself pointed me at the Fixed Z Joints as the Next Best Thing, stating that the GE5Cs were "old news now".

Sounds great, then I will have to try to take a look at it. In the GitHub repo I only see one stop file and very little information other than that. Do you have any idea where I can find some more info?

The designer, ByThorsThunder, is quite active on the Voron Discord. As is Hartk, who recommended these to me. Either should be able to answer questions.

It gives you the most flexibility in how you lay out your components.

He has created frames (the hex grid part) for many different printer builds and also in generic squares and rectangles.

It's definitely a quality of life upgrade if you care about cable management. On a 2.4, due to the deck panel, it's not easy to install FT EMS unless you are building from scratch or doing a complete tear down and rebuild. On other builds, installing EMS post-build isn't as problematic.

I highly recommend planning your EMS layout carefully (I did just that in CAD), and making sure you print all of the required parts ahead of your tear down and rebuild.

The pile of board game boxes that I was using as a monitor stand have just this morning been replaced with a swing arm monitor mount.

More content coming! ;-)

Thanks so much 😊

I have absolutely no idea what that's like!

@@oldguymeltsplastic yeah its a mystery !

Rail, singular, and it's an MGN9. Who does top rails any more?

@@oldguymeltsplastic trying to show a picture, but gets removed, i meant flipping the whole X-axis mounts and all so the y rails get's on top of the extrusions

Ah! Does doing that help something?

@@oldguymeltsplastic heh, boils down to placebo effect i think, apparently it's better for the side load you get on Core X/Y jerk. it's easier to mount, i think it looks better. but for performance gain probably zero.

I plan on pushing the Krakens as fast as they'll go, or at least as fast as my hotend and cooling will allow.

Thanks so much! 😊

More content is queued up and scheduled to go live soonish.

LOL, I hear you! Never really wanted to spend more time editing versus recording content, but it's a thing.

Happy to see you back on the tube OGMP! Studio looks good and the V2 looks like it's gonna be a beaut! Can't wait to see more

@@artfedderson Thanks Art! Life got in the way for a while, then side projects, then setting up the recording space in the basement, and finally, more content. More stuff incoming RSN (Real Soon Now)!

Got to make that monotized monies

Just to be transparent, I was laid off from my day job in early July, and this RUclips channel was never intended to be my full time job, or even a side hustle. That being said, other than mentioning a discount code for West3D in passing one time in a single video almost a year ago, and I don't really have any sponsors and no affiliate product links. With the exception of a few BTT small products they sent to me for free in exchange for some content creation, everything you see on my channel was paid for out of my own pockets. And I don't really make much from the RUclips clicks. My channel isn't that popular, yet!

Going to be using 9mm belts too!

Thanks, I have missed these interactions!

The general process steps are the same, but the configurations you will use in make menuconfig are different from what I've pictured in these videos. I strongly recommend that you check out Esoterical's CAN Bus docs page here for more info on the general process, and your specific hardware: canbus.esoterical.online/

I hacked it together in the slicer from two different mounts. And didn't save the file...

They were close. The HB fans appeared to push a bit more air, the GDSTime fans were a bit quieter.

U2C needs to receive 24V power and ground into the green screw terminals on the end. Connect those to your 24V Power Supply.
