Currently up to 4 Ender 3 pro’s, (1 not pictured being repaired). All synced over repetier server on a raspberry pi, which was life changing! Running only 12 hours a day until I install the quiet motherboards and my wife lets me run them all night!

Great to see this community growing away from reddit!

I'm running an Ender 3. Although through the 3.5 years I've had it it's had so many parts changed and upgraded it's turning into a real ship of Theseus. Upgraded the mobo, hotend, direct drive extruder, raspberry pi for octoprint, enclosure, and bltouch for bed leveling.

It's definitely been a rewarding hobby, learning to use fusion and building things from scratch.

Mutant ender3 crew! I think the only original part left on mine are the axes and bed. I kept getting jams though, finally one that oozed out all over the heater block and it was just so frustrating to clean and reset all the time that I finally jumped on an ender3 s1 pro when I saw one for $300 on amazon. Does everything I upgraded my OG ender3 to do, and 🤞 no jams so far 🤞 !

Sometimes I wish I had just gotten something better to start with, but the experience of going through all those upgrades and truly learning how everything works was well worth the time, cost, and frustration.

Of course! Just finished my Voron 2.4 build very recently. Lots of new stuff to see coming from a Prusa MK3S+.

Very nice! I've only got one and I need a more sturdy table since it gets rattled apart by the printer.

Subscribed to pull your community into lemmy.ml, should show up if anyone searches for 3D printing now

I didn’t know that’s how it worked. I appreciate it!

Any user could just put in the full URL of your community to subscribe like I did, but this is a tumultuous time. Just trying to make things as easy as possible for the torrent of new users coming in :)

Here is my current setup. It's an old Ender 3, has a BLtouch, direct drive dual gear, all metal hot end, and an extension cable for the control panel. I have an adapter as well to use it as a plotter.

As with most 3D printers it seems, it is currently broken lmao.
