Hi from Amsterdam

[Kleinejan]

I'm Kleinejan living in Amsterdam where I have my studio. Next to my freelance jobs, I reserve time to make anything from a photo-o-matic, 256 shiftregister, Boltanski art installation, Boltanski installation with radar, custom brake light pcb. My first printer was a stock Prusa Mk3s+ (2018), that would be my go-to-first-time-printer advice. Somewhere in 2021 the Voron 2.4 was all the rage and I needed to build one on/in my prusa/chamber. I went through all the hoops we all have been. Molten sensors, broken wires, bad crimps, nozzle crash, firmware flash hell, upgrade to SSD, replaced Octo with Mainsail, bought ikea Dioder lights, replaced them again, added a TFT screen, removed it because..why, added klicky. Fought with the macro's, found it stupid, added tab, added can-bus, blew-up a pi4 (), added dibond panels, upgraded to 2.4r2. In the meantime also build a V0, sold my prusa, bought an awesome  V2.4r2 from Lotte3d. 

It strikes me that the Voron community excludes certain hot-ends for reasons that are not clear/logic, but on the other hand everyone is using the proprietary Fusion360. That aside, when Autodesk changed the maker-license to have only X projects etc. I decided to go for Freecad and absorb MangoJelly. Never looked back. True, I also use other software where I pay for, but that's software I'm using on a daily base. You can't beat some industry standards.
