Phaetus Dragonfly BMS mount for MGN12 mounted on 2020 extrusion

I made this for my Twotrees Sapphire S CoreXY a while back, but I’ve now modified it to fit on an MGN12 linear rail, mounted on 2020 extrusion. 

The Dragonfly BMS mounts to the carriage, and all the fans are mounted on their own bracket that slots into place on the carriage. It makes for quick access to the hotend, with no removal of screws.  

It has two 5mm LED’s integrated on the backside, to light up the area around the nozzle. 

The fans used are a 4010 for the hotend cooling and 4010 Blower fans for the parts cooling. 

I will release both the 2020 version and Twotrees Sapphire S version to my Patrons in a few days. 

Fenrir has a new board and screen!

It’s been a while since I had a Fenrir update, but things have still happened in the background. The latest design updates are because the Mellow board I was planning to use, is no longer available. This forced me to find a new board, with the connectors on just one side, and the choice I’m going with looks like to be the BTT  SKR E3 V1.1 with a TFT35 E3 V3.0 screen since I want to run RepRap on it. 

Another thing I’ve changed is that I upgraded to the Orbiter 2.0 since it’s out. 

I’m printing the new printed parts at the moment, and hopefully will be ordering the new board, screen, and the Orbiter soon, among linear rails, etc. 

I hope you like the updates. More to come soon!

Final version of the Ender 3 mainboard relocation kit +++

Hi everyone! 

Well, it looks like I’ve finalized the project. It got a bit bigger than I originally thought (Typical me). Finishing up printing the last few parts, might be a tweak or two, but should be minor changes if any. Expect the files in a few days, available for both Warrior and Jarl Patreon levels. 

I hope you like the final result. 

It’s 6 parts:

Mainboard case with room for a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, and a buck converter.
Screen case
Tool holder
PSU support + cover
X-axis cable mount
Hemera bracket

Thanks,

Ender 3 mainboard relocation case update and more.

Hi everyone!

I’ve been working more on this project, and as it often is, it has expanded a bit. 

I’ve added a place for a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W in the mainboard case, added a tool holder on the right side, where the screen used to be, added a cable mount/ strain relief for the gantry cables and a couple of other things. 

So far I’ve printed the mainboard case and it fit well, and I’ll continue printing the parts in the coming days and release them to you, my dear Patrons. 

Let me know if you have any thoughts. 🙂

Thanks,

Ender 3 mainboard relocation case

Hi all! 

I need another printer up and running, to print the parts for Fenrir and other projects, and after upgrading this Ender 3 to direct drive, the extruder stepper motor didn’t have a long enough cable anymore. So I designed a case for relocating the Ender 3 mainboard to the back left to gain the reach I need. 

Yeah, I could have just lengthened the cable, but thought this would be a fun little side project. 

As you see I’ve also relocated the screen to the left side, to make sure the stock LCD cable is long enough, and I guess this could be handy for the lefties out there. 

I’ll start the print today, and I’ll upload it for all my Patrons when I’ve confirmed everything works as intended. 🙂

Thanks,
Thomas the Makerviking

Ps. I might expand on this project later with other parts for the Ender 3.

Case and mount for the DFrobot DFR0678 7″ touchscreen + Raspberry Pi

I made a case for the DFrobot DFR0678 7″ touchscreen for the Raspberry Pi, with a Raspberry Pi case integrated, and a jointed mount for 2020 and 3030 extrusions. This will be available in a day or two for you, my dear Patrons! I hope you’ll find it useful.

Color examples for fenrir!

So, I did a thing. 

I know I’ve mainly posted the black and blue variant here and on social media, but different colors have always been in my thoughts.
The thing is, that I want everyone that builds one, to print it with the colors you want yourselves, to make it your own, and I can’t wait to see all the different color combinations you all come up with. 

The design is basically finished, and I’m still printing parts and will get the rest of the filament I need in a few days. 

I appreciate all the support!

Thanks, Thomas
