An amalgamation of a Voron 2.4 frame, a Voron Trident inspired design, and with left over ender 3 (pro) parts.
hey this project looks really really awesome. unfortunately since a large part of this is from someone else's design, ill need to return this. you should try making your own gantry!!
CAD is done!!!
I have finished the CAD to the point where I am happy with it, and it will create a functional machine.
I did end up messing up the mate connectors for some of the drop in T-Nuts since I had tried to replace them after I realized I had used the wrong one. This ended up messing up the mates and I ended up just deleting the mates, they don’t move anyways…
Its lookin a little different…
So I have completed the entire gantry for the printer. I have also made a custom toolhead that is compatible with the xol toolhead carriage for the monolith gantry design. Additionally I have opted to use the Trident inverted electronics mod, on which I have mounted the electronics.
gantry gantry gantry
Most of the time was me wondering if I should go with the stock gantry design or use an awd design. I have ended up opting to use the monolith gantry for it’s compatibility with awd. I chose the monolith gantry since I don’t think I could iterate on the awd gantry design anymore than what I would be willing to compromise on. However, I have created mounts for use with the Ender 3 motors so that they are compatible with the long shafted version.
Start work on Z-Axis
I got the frame fixed up since I was missing a bit. I had also mounted the gantry positions but I don’t want to figure out how to do an AWD corexy gantry yet, so I started work on the Z-Axis of the printer. I got the base corners onto the frame assembly, and I will be working on the other mounts next. Then I will work on mounting the bed to the stepper motors.
