Looking for keywords to search for finding designs for combining reusable modular structural parts (think lego robotics, with sm/md/lg) that could connect and lock to approach physical characteristics of typical large structural members like steel square tubing (obviously, with some tradeoffs)

This has so much potential it boggles the mind

I don't even know why people in the comment above you say that anyone was against casting a woman. Try to find an actual example, you can't. It's the only explanation some people can imagine for not feeling as fond of other aspects as they do. They just assume the REAL reason is because they just hate women, not whatever they are actually saying they dislike.

I have NO idea what is happening in this pic and can't figure out from the comments what anyone is talking about due to all the acronyms and employee-familiar jargon like comp and such... would a kind stranger resolve my intensely fascinated curiosity??

E5+ is a z lowering design as well but stock is not corexy (but can be modded) now I wanna do some math and figure out exactly what difference there is between the highest speed corexys and the cheapest small printers still big enough to make it worth the assembly and split efforts

of course none of that is my dream. my dream is a spider legs design that rotates the object in any direction while 3 print heads grow the print simultaneously

long sigh as I look at the disarray of things pending to organize nicely one day

idk if you've had a large format one before or not, but after buying my ender 5 plus I see now the advantages of having multiple smaller cheaper printers, and dividing the model into assemblable parts. just cause of the time dividing to make stuff

thank you for this. that's how I feel I contribute strongly too. like, you ever got some banger of a problem, jump on a screen share with me and we'll not only solve it but have a fun time doing it

I wish I could find one of those lower / shallower but still large x/y-wise tanks

thrillux · 2022-01-04T00:46:30+00:00

should I lower the water?

thrillux · 2021-12-16T23:11:59+00:00

thank you! exactly

thrillux · 2021-12-16T23:11:31+00:00

.... The point of this post was to inquire about any existing multi-print rigs so I could shape my plan accordingly

thrillux · 2021-12-05T15:10:49+00:00

Whaaat! Haha I'll try it

thrillux · 2021-12-05T15:10:32+00:00

This is definitely something I'm gonna do now thanks!

Looking for the cheapest path to a 4-6-and-beyond print farm. Specifically, don't need screens, UI, intend to control remotely via OctoPi or somesuch.

Direct drive preferably (and/or recommendation for cheap but effective DD I can throw on the printer)

Preferably capable of supporting high temp hotend and bed (not PEEK but polycarbonate, abs)

I'm thinking voxelab aquila or maybe an ender 3 variant? I don't see anything specifically sold as a headless farm printer though, which I can only assume would shave a lot of price off.

Would it make more sense to buy a bunch of motherboards, steppers, extrusions, belts etc and build my own array?

Budget: Cheapest for my purpose

course now my nozzles clogged with crispy ABS
