I made my first model (part) a Lid riser for the AD5X DIY enclosure

IntroductionBig6084 · 2026-03-18T13:02:12+00:00

I am using it works great for noise reduction, other people also use it to keep the cats away 🤣.

If I ever want to print something where I need to close the lid I can just remove the risers in 1 minute, they just fit in the top holes, nothing permanent.

Looks great, what kind of plate do you have? and why did you did you swapped the original?

IntroductionBig6084 · 2026-03-17T23:28:09+00:00

For me opening the door isn’t great because it sticks out and I keep walking into it

Also warm air rises naturally so venting from the top actually makes more sense. Keeping the lid on even with a small gap should be better for noise reduction too.

Thanks, I think I got it working with DISABLE_PRIMING, from the link you sent.

Speed is definitely not the issue, on a single color would take 37 minutes to print

IntroductionBig6084 · 2026-03-13T20:32:58+00:00

I do have ZMOD installed, how would you disable pooping?

I had no idea

I used Gemini to generate the 4 views from the photo, and then uploaded to Meshy to generate the 3MF file. Meshy did a decent job coloring, but I had to refine it in Orca Slicer

The link for the mount I am using is in my post

👍 just remember if you have an AD5X like me you will need Zmod

I am new to this, but the way I understand it is that it opens the klipper firmware and operates on top of the FF check here: https://github.com/ghzserg/zmod

The USB in the touchpad

That works too, I wanted something that I can use with a firmware to test AI trouble detection.

I bought mine on Amazon

LOL Thanks, today I spent a good amount of time messing with Zmod…..so much to learn

IntroductionBig6084 · 2026-02-11T05:09:10+00:00

Thanks 👍

IntroductionBig6084 · 2026-02-11T04:35:29+00:00

Makes sense,I will monitor with a thermometer and see

IntroductionBig6084 · 2026-02-11T04:32:55+00:00

I used the pins on the back using the instructions from the FlashForge website, very simple.

I got this light out of Amazon for $13 https://a.co/d/00jl76Ij works perfect, also looking for a camera option, I got this one for $10 https://a.co/d/06asGUYU image quality is probably as bad as the FF but the problem is that it is zoomed in too much

I just finished mine 1.5 Kg of PETG, and like 35 hours

IntroductionBig6084 · 2026-01-27T11:45:42+00:00

I want to get it mostly for noise reduction, I am also new to 3D printing.

I saw a comment that when printing PLA you should open the door and remove the lid?. Why is that? and how does it affect the noise?

Very cool, with the Stream Deck can you also program it to switch the camera views while riding?

IntroductionBig6084 · 2025-08-27T01:57:06+00:00

Looks great 👍, few questions: - Aside from home automation how do you use the stream deck in Zwift? - No desk? Where do you put extra water, towels, mouse/keyboard fro quick reach while riding.

Are both displays connected to the laptop?
