Current Status: Needs work, but getting there

An Ender 3 with some modifications: * Main board updated to an SKR mini V3 * Running Klipper, with a Raspberry Pi running mainsail for control * Creality Spider V3 hotend * Dual Z-axis * …and more!

Unlike the other printers with the Octoprint farm, this printer uses Klipper and mainsail for control. To print to it, navigate to ender3.local on the MakerNet network (more details later)

To send to it automagically via Cura, you'll want the Moonraker plugin for Cura.

In your Cura setup, you'll want to set the following for the Print Startup routine:

; M190 S{material_bed_temperature_layer_0}
; M109 S{material_print_temperature_layer_0}
start_print BED_TEMP={material_bed_temperature_layer_0} EXTRUDER_TEMP={material_print_temperature_layer_0}

This should set up an adaptive mesh around your object and set things appropriately.

The Print End routine is just:

end_print

To-Do list:

  • Get the USB webcam mounted correctly (and remove the Pi Camera whenever it's convenient…)
  • Pressure Advance configuration
  • Input Shaping/Resonance Compensation
  • Timelapse setup?
