I really enjoyed your build on the ender 5 plus mercury 1.1 untill the end when you did not show to to wire it up so I guess I will be on my own at 70 years young to do it myself..
I apologize that I did not get a wiring video done for this unit but as is the case with most every build I do, these are for shows and wiring is one of the final steps. Unfortunately, this always comes about right at crunch time to get finished up for the shows, I do not get any video work done and miss the mark on this particular item more often than not.
@@oldtimeengineer26 Back when I was building these, I used Super Slicer, now I use Orca Slicer, but I no longer have any Mercury One's, I only have a single Voron 2.4 left, I've given away all my other printers.
I didn't get files anywhere, I designed what I wanted in Fusion 360 and made it myself. Unfortunately I no longer have any of these printers and have long since deleted the files as it did not work well placing that kind of weight on top of an Ender 5.

Did you have to design the filament sensor and top frame brackets yourself? The reason I ask is because this is a very similar directions I'm trying to take with my ender 5 plus
@@vankrunckelsvendimitri6399 I no longer use this setup as ERCF no longer requires a sensor in the tool-head. I will upload this to one of the sharing site this evening.
@@EDGEOF3D Hi, Im thinking of jumping into this one using my zero g mercury ender 5+ using eva2.4 toolhead, do i need to modify the config to say that I dont have a toolhead sensor?
@@ranielendrino I'd strongly recommend using the Happy Hare fork of the ERCF software. It handles the no toolhead sensor setup. github.com/moggieuk/ERCF-Software-V3
This isn't enclosed, that top-hat was just to have a place to mount the ERCF. I have since removed all of it as it was just too much weight up that high on the printer, was creating artifacts in the prints.
Nicely done. You made it impossible for me to avoid building an ERCF! Thanks for the advice along the way!

@@EDGEOF3D No worries I got mine done sort of. May I ask what slicer do you use? I have tried a few and the prints always fail.

I love it, I have an orbiter 1.5 and it is great.
3 lead screws and 3 rails? Bit overkill no?
where did you get the files for the top case of this build? i just built me a hydra

Have you cut the corners of the heatpad yourself, or is it made that way?
Made specifically for this conversion www.fabreeko.com/collections/zero-g/products/fabreeko-edge-to-edge-heaters-for-zero-g
@@EDGEOF3D How would i install that heat bed? What else do i need?

Yes, I designed the Sherpa Mount/Filament Sensor myself.
@@EDGEOF3D would you like to share the design?

I know this is an old post but what does it look like now? @@EDGEOF3D
@@stephenkeisler3392 I gave these printers away at MRRF 2023, I no longer have them, only the ERCF in a box somewhere but I no longer use it.
Nice!
