Wonderful laser-cut Maxwell-style kinematic bed mounts.

I'll just HAVE to get these. See what this forum does to us - encourages MODS!

Did a terrible job at applying RTV to my heater bed, especially as it's an edge-to-edge one. 

However, once the thermal fuse is done too, I'll feel a smidge better it's secure and slightly safer than before. 

It's since cured overnight nice and firm. Just hope the heater pad works as it's not coming off now

Ooooh don't tempt fate I once used the same stuff of attach something or other to a heated bed and I do remember cursing quite a lot when I had to remove it. It did seem like a brilliant solution at the time.

It's not that bad, I am sure I will do way worse...
On a lighter note, a blind man riding past on a horse in the middle of the night wouldn't even notice

Long time no update! 

First of all, my stepper motors have had an upgrade. 

Out are the humble LDO-425TH48-2004MAH(VRN) and in are the LDO-425TH48-2804AH a.k.a "SUPER POWER" HT!!

Transplanting the 0.9 degree steppers - which I'd actually installed - for the newer 1.8 degree ones wasn't too painful.

I've also upgraded my hotend from a Revo VORON (I still love the Revo) to something that might keep up with these insane motors and insane stepper drivers. 

So the Rapido Plus was where I went...

Another new thing was the introduction of ABS+ with sparkles

 

And fiddly wiring... I went for a guage of wire a little too thick - but in the end it worked out okay. 

[Hais]

The part that I had been dreading for a while - Clockwork 2 - actually worked out pretty good in the end. Even if the prints are a bit iffy, I'll probably end up reprinting them later. 

[Hais]

Alas, something, ineviabtably, caught me. 

I got TAP installed well - or so I thought. 

I

 

But something wasn't right. I was given a tip on Discord that it's probably my poorly printed TAP letting me down. I think they're right. So I'll be reprinting that tomorrow. 

[Hais]

Oh and I did crimping. Lots of crimping. With way too much heatshrink that needed. 

Here are the super boring photos as evidence. Enjoy.

I have the Bowden tube clips somewhere… don’t worry!

Honestly, it took me a month to figure out where I put the BMG thumbscrew. Why do you think I post so infrequently

No it was more of a joke, cause I made a version where a UM2 fits in this, the one you made, doesnt  I dont know why they made it without um2....

I was about to say - I found the clips, but they don’t fit! 
 

Awesome that you made a mod

[Buurman]

On that note, I added it to downloads to make it official I guess, I did see that someone else also made it, but its hidden somewhere in the Enraged Rabbit Github.

I guess he ran into the exact same issue.

I really appreciate that mod, @Buurman. I'll have to print it up and rebuild my CW2 (again). I tried doing a similar mod using an M6 fitting, but it interferes with the access door, so I tossed that idea.
