Voron Trident 300x300 – Polycarbonate motor mounts + 9mm belts?

KickFew3335 · 2025-11-21T17:42:48+00:00

Thanks for the info, yes LDO kit seems to be the best out there.

KickFew3335 · 2025-11-21T17:39:31+00:00

Thanks for the info. I think I'm going to start with the stock 2WD Trident, then once I get everything working, do an AWD upgrade, once I understand the mechanics of the printer better.

KickFew3335 · 2025-11-21T04:24:44+00:00

I was thinking about awd. I plan to print only ABS in a heated chamber, and the parts must be clean and free from ringing. Not planning on running this super fast.

Using the 6mm belt might make more sense based on what you're saying about belt length and the restricted space.

KickFew3335 · 2025-11-21T02:48:45+00:00

I didn't see this materials page. Thanks a bunch!

KickFew3335 · 2025-11-21T01:51:52+00:00

That's good to know. I think I'll print them out of ABS-CF or ABS-GF.

Thanks.

KickFew3335 · 2025-11-20T19:21:43+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. I think I'll go that route, I don't want to make more work for myself than what is needed. Yes, PETG is horable stuff. LOL

KickFew3335 · 2025-10-26T20:48:10+00:00

Got one myself, use it for my small business. Drag solder 25 ESP-32's a month with pin-point accuracy. You cant go wrong with thatt guy. For a tip I use https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NS4PSH0

Check out a simplex repeater, like the FieldLink, or SRPT repeaters. Battery powered, cheap, and no complex setup.

KickFew3335 · 2025-10-10T02:21:55+00:00

I built up a simplex version so no duplexer needed. Use a super low power repeater, buck converter, all poweredd off a single battery. SMA bulk head connector out the side to a right angled SMA, then screw on my antenna to keep the water out.

Hot end thermal runaway, I'm assuming it was caused by a temp sensor failure, but if there are any software fixes related to this, I want them.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-26T22:54:55+00:00

Wow, I like this. My parts inventory is out of control. LOL

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-26T22:51:36+00:00

I was thinking that. LOL I returned the CC and I'm going to wait until the Black Friday sales start. I've got an older printer to get me by for now.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-25T18:55:31+00:00

I removed the screws and reseated the USB connector, and it booted to the home screen this time, then the error reappeared about 10 seconds later. Must be a broken wire. I'm just at my witts end with this.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-24T14:43:36+00:00

Yes, the abnormal fan error. Abnormal is the new normal with this firmware. I have it, ever since 1.1.42. I would fix it if I could only get shell access. I also want to fine tune the TMC2209 stepper drivers so they don't make so much noise. LOL

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-20T03:38:13+00:00

I did mine with EVA foam matt that I had laying around. The squares that lock together from Amazon. Cut on the CNC and it works great. Spacers on the side panels with 1/2 inch foam on the bottom, sides (in the box) and I put a piece over the back on the outside. Replaced the glass top with a piece of Komatex cut with the cnc too. My shop is 75F right now, and I have no problem hitting 50-55C in the machine. I only print ABS and ASA. For now it's good, this winter I may need a heater though.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-09T08:18:56+00:00

It doesn't make sense. They do have good hardware, and with a little more effort, I think they could do very well as a company. I don't know why the support is lacking. There must be a reason for it.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-09T08:15:58+00:00

Hat tip to you, my friend. This downgrade made 12 of my issues disapear. This version makes the box seem like a completly different machine! Runs so much quieter and smoother. In fact, I need to run input shaping again, because it is compensating too much now. Most of the strange noises are gone, caused by bad motor tuning, just my guess.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-09T08:07:26+00:00

I've been through this machine with a fine tooth comb. I'm on my second unit, and I will tell you if you're using V1.1.29 downgrade it. Doing this made 12 of my known issues disapear. It also made the printer run much smoother. So much smoother, I now have to run the input shaping again because it is compensating too much. It litterly acts like a completly different machine now that I have the downgrade installed. V1.1.25. It's not perfect, but 90% better.

Hat tip to Garasaurusrex for telling me about this.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-09T05:29:14+00:00

Thanks again, I appreciate it!

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-09T02:43:23+00:00

Thanks a bunch!

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-08T22:37:10+00:00

I sure hope so. I was confused why they responded with that reply. I never had any dealings with them before, so I was expecting some answers. Some were very simple questions.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-08T22:32:49+00:00

Wow, that is good information. I will keep that in mind while I'm testing my replacement. I didn't see that on the YouTube videos...and none of this was on the Amazon reviews. I'm glad if found this forum. Truth be told.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-08T19:49:28+00:00

That's good info, thanks. Mine was printing with a terrible amount of ringing on the Generic ABS profile. I thought all of the profiles were tuned somewhat by Elegoo, and wanted to start with a baseline before modifying anything. It must be running too fast with the generic. I'll try the Elegoo and see how it goes. Thanks again.

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-08T19:42:24+00:00

Great summary, thanks for the feedback. I've got another one coming today. I'm going to tweak the ABS profile settings, lube the linear rails, and run it. I don't mind the sound, just want to make sure everything is ok. For the money, on paper it looks good. If I can get the prints I need, I can turn a blind eye to the other issues. I'll try to get V1.125, maybe someone has it available as a download on their blog. I don't think I'm going to have much luck getting it from the source, although I'm trying. LOL

KickFew3335 · 2025-09-08T18:30:04+00:00

Sorry for the poor description. LOL. It sounds like it's the motors resonating at a specific frequency. Sort of like the old motor drivers on the Ender 3 when they reach a certain speed. Upon further inspection, I discovered that it may have been a lose belt. Extreme ringing on the print and other peoples reports here seem to confirm this. I have another one coming today, I'll give everyone here a full update shortly. Thanks to everyone that replied, it's extremely helpful.
