  • Is this actively heated or just temperature controlled? From what I saw it just has vents to allow heat to escape (think leaving the door open when printing PLA).

    If it was actively heated I would buy it in a heart beat, Voron doesn’t even like people talking about it due to the high danger if done wrong.

    EDIT: Yeah just looks like the bed heater still unfortunately. I have a modded enclosed Ender 5 I just have a heat soak script tied to a thermistor midway up the frame so I’ll hold off until there’s an actual separate heating element. Hopefully soon!





  • Really depends on the make, you can get Mitchell and AllData prior to the subscription model (takes about a TB of space, from 1980s to 2013) to help with diagrams and disassembly and reassembly. Mitchell’s wiring diagrams really are a lifesaver.

    Dealer level software/scanner combo you can get from obdii365, I got a Hyundai scanner from them and it worked well but you want to run the software in a VM or isolate it some other way and probably wouldn’t network it.

    Vxdiag is pretty solid as well for the dealer software/scanner and you can usually get via Amazon but again I wouldn’t trust the software. I have their ford one and used it with IDS to set the VIN on an electronic power steering rack.

    The software itself you can find via Google if it’s all you need but typically the scanner is very specific to the software for the dealership stuff






  • I just used a buck converter and a USB pigtail for mine so it still plugs into the pi where the power cable used to it’s just running off the Ender 3s power supply. They were fairly cheap on Amazon something like $6 for a pack

    The only cables you really see for my printer are the short USB connecting the Pi to the SKR on the back, and the power supply cable. The rest is hidden or inside cable chains.

    Definitely made moving the printer easier and much less of an eyesore of wiring.
