Total Newbi here. Just bought a total hunk of junk 3d printer, and am suffering a massive learning curve that I wasn’t quite prepared for. This video.. has helped… A LOT!! Bless ye sire!!
Does anyone knows if there is going to be a part 4? These videos were like "wow i can't believe this were around here all the time" then pafff!! "You know how you never ended nothing in your life? Well this tutorial is exactly like that" i hope this continues as detailed as it started, i guess that was why it began. so pleeeese just don't end this just to end it, keep the excellent work, and keep these videos as detailed as the previous ones
This is a brilliant video for those of us who are modifying our current printer. The explanation is very clear however the visuals are a little confusing since you say to change or undefine a line but don't actually do it on the screen so its a little confusing to understand what you're saying to do especially at your pace. Overall though very helpful guide well done
Great series, I find it helpful as I'm planning my own design/build. But, I'm not sure who needs to hear this, but if you're doing a lot of customization and modding, Klipper is the way to go. You build/flash once, then just update a config file via web interface for all of your tweaks and changes. I find it super great for modding, and I can't imagine doing a build from scratch and all the associated tuning without it.
It is a lot of work for sure. Totally agree that Klipper is better for easier access to changing firmware values - we'll actually be doing two versions, one marlin and one klipper.
@@3DJake_Official nice. I look forward to the next installment. I'm gathering parts and tentatively planning a low budget large core XY. 400x400 bed from a Kobra Max. Thinking plywood box frame/enclosure with ASA printed parts in the corners to mount gears/pulleys, etc. Linear rails for X & Y, triple rods & motors for z axis. I picked up an Octopus Pro with a couple 5160's and a bunch of 2209's. I haven't picked out steppers yet, or decided if I want to do 48v on the X & Y or not. I have some Ender 3 steppers I might start with.
Hey Jake, 4:30 confusion here, how to find which printer's config files fit with our custom made printer. 🤕 As mine is also coustom made and I want to flash the firmware.
I guess you need to be a bit familiar with the printers in the config file. Try to find one with similar parts and features. Maybe you want to build a corexy with a specific bed size, choose a printer config with the same bed and same motion system.
I'm going to be trying to make a custom firmware for Tenlog TLD3 printers... They've come out with a "high speed" version, but basically haven't updated their firmware to 2.1.2, so it's very limited.
Looking for more information on sensorless homing. Was hoping this video would have a demo but im not seeing it. Have you been able to achieve consistent bed mesh leveling with sensorless homing? How has your experience been so far (tuning and homing the printer)?
@@3DJake_OfficialAny update on “it’s in the works?” You’re almost to the finish line and we are currently left hanging. It’s been a fantastic series so far. I’m looking forward to finishing the series and building one just as youre doing. A link for the build was mentioned in one of the videos to build the same as you’re doing here. I’m guessing that will come at the end. I’m chomping at the bit to get going as I need a larger build capability than my old Ender 3.
@@billcedarheath387 Currently designing the printhead, all that is left is the firmware after that, still I can't give you an ETA :( This is very much a side project.
@@3DJake_Official It’s a shame that it’s a side project. It’s such helpful information and great content. My personal take is it shouldn’t take a backseat as there is some time sensitivity for us looking to use the info for our own builds.
@@billcedarheath387 I totally agree and I have so much to say about the design process in the next video, seriously the amount of experimentation that was done because I couldn't find more explanation online was crazy.
hi can u please tell me how Marlin firmware navigates between the screens using encoder feedback is that logic is scalable for implementing the logic for navigating more than 50 screens

A good name would be "The Printer Formally Known As Prints"
The "Purple Jake"!
Very informative and entertaining video!! I really appreciate your effort!! :) when will this series continue?
Thanks! 2 maybe 3 weeks, we have another video coming out next week and then we're shooting the follow up :)
Excellent video! Really looking forward to part 4, is it coming out soon?
Finishing touches are being made :)

Yeah sure!!

z homing with sensorless homing is not an option, its just not reliable. We only use it for the x and y axes
didn't see the frame for the little printer. Please share the little printer details - thank you - please have a great day
Next part is coming soon and we're just talking about the little printer
When will the Part 4 come out? I really want to follow the series for my undergrad research project :
Don't worry it is in the works!

Please do it for Klipper. PLEASE
Literally writing the cfg file as I read this😆
oh lol. so i want it for klipper, because its working better. best on the mainboard and not on a other pi@@3DJake_Official

Is there a next episode? This video was posted 11 months ago. Thanks.
It is slow but it is coming :)
@@3DJake_Official I will keep an eye open for it. Thanks for letting me know.

That's a good question but unfortunately I'm not sure :/
A good name "cat fighter" or "purple boy"
No Ep. 4? Has this series been put on hiatus?
Nope but we had a bunch of other stuff to do. We have two videos coming out in the next couple of weeks and then Part 4 comes out :)
hola, me interezaria tener las medidas de referecian y materiales que utilizaste para hacer la impresora, saludos
We're still in design mode but we'll have an update in a few weeks with lots of info
If you use Linux you have VSCode already? No, no, no... we use Vim ;)
Or at least VSCodium (seriously, you don't need the Microsoft telemetry)
Part 4?
Pick the name of classic Vincent Price character.
Prince Prospero has a nice ring to it....actually works with the other Prince-related recommendations too.
"The Inventor" (Edward Scissorhands)
come on pls upload ep4 😭
When can we expect an Update?
It will be about 5 weeks or so. We'll finally have time to finalise and present one :)
@@3DJake_Official Will be waiting patiently : ) Just don't make use of linear rails, they are very expensive.
@@maazshahid8920 Actually for one printer we're not using linear rails at all :)
