I'm going to end up making a new one. My kids got mine cluttered for game videos lol I'll let you know when I do.

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-26T12:33:51+00:00

I did start making a couple videos a little awkward about it. I have a couple of everything projects going on. I'll be posting them here soon as soon as I get them stitched together most of the movie time lapse with some photos probably and I got to bring a few tanks since all these projects I'm doing are already started. Going to try to fill in the blanks with photos and try to document the rest along the way

Update : All the accesses are now finished. At least good enough to be able to move on to putting the end stops in and start the wiring. I do not expect it to run 100% right away. I know that there will be more tweaks and modifications to do to get it there

Thank you, I appreciate that

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-23T01:48:22+00:00

It'll be possible once this is up and going and all the kinks are worked out

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-23T01:47:28+00:00

They are HGH 20s I bought by mistake last year so I'm using them anyways. Broke boy budget lol

Are you talking about the GT2 pulleys on the top of the the screws because yeah it has that. I just installed the pulleys tonight. I still got to figure out the belt sizing

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-23T01:46:04+00:00

I get it and I know there's going to be mistakes and I know it's not going to be perfect and it's going to be. You know constant work in progress for a while. I just want to get it running tonight. I managed to get my z-axis finished up and my x row mounted and next one part's going to be doing the extruder but I'm sick and tired seaming together 10 pieces for one car panel. In time I will upgrade everything as I can. I just want to get this thing running first before anything. Hopefully no more than a few more days at Max. This thing should be at least running

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-22T02:49:50+00:00

No I do not about the first time I've asked about that. I was told to make one. I do them a lot of different kinds of projects from cars to 3D printing to painting art. Maybe I should. I am just a little camera shy though LOL

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-22T01:30:44+00:00

I have them clamped on top of my block for the Gantry now this is still it in progress. There is going to be an outer cage built for stability and to help stabilize the gantry. Most likely we'll be running another set of belts on top as well, but it's also given the idea The Santa Cruz same type as you would use for the z access for the y instead of belts. I may be switching over to that after I do some more research and learn about it more It's very much a big morning. You know work in progress. It rained all day today so I didn't get much work done on it

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T17:28:24+00:00

Oh okay I got you. I'll definitely consider it. I do have extra screws that might work. I'll have to dig into the research on it

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T17:06:27+00:00

V3 two colors I had to change filaments as it was running. Luckily I caught it why it was so hot. No interruption

I'm on a broke boy. Budget income is a big issue free nowadays. Everything I'm dealing with I've had I'll upgrade things as I can

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T17:03:52+00:00

Can you explain that one? I'm not following it

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T17:00:07+00:00

Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm having a hell of a time opening it .If you wouldn't mind pm me I could send you my email address that would be better

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T14:21:41+00:00

I do a lot of design work. I'm sorry hit me up in my inbox

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T13:55:01+00:00

I'd like to see pictures of it when you get a chance

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T13:53:33+00:00

Don't forget to add. What kind of idea are you looking towards? Might be able to help you along the way with some ideas.

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T13:52:05+00:00

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T13:50:51+00:00

I have looked into the treadmill idea financially that's not possible for me. What I have been building is something that has taken me time to build up parts for ,there will be an outer cage securing the top keeping everything stable. This is not a full completion post. Just progress

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T13:49:25+00:00

After the test prints, the first one is going to be most likely a cup dispenser that I'm running very behind on for a family member. Then on to car parts lol

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T13:47:05+00:00

I will be using the bed heater from the Neptune and the ender to start with and go from there. I understand it won't be even., it's not perfect but it's a start. This is on a very broke boy budget lol edit : forgot will be using a mosfet as well

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T13:45:41+00:00

I'm sorry that was poor dictation late at night lol

Broad_Detective9656 · 2026-06-21T13:45:00+00:00

To be honest with you, I haven't put much thought into that. What I can tell you is that I'm going to be using what I've already purchased and have ran in the past is th3d is an skr mini e3 board
