3DPrintersForAnts.com VS VoronUsers

Mercury one ender 5 conversion fits the bill, or look at some of the voron v0 inspired builds here: https://3dprintersforants.com/

As mentioned below, 3dprintersforants.com is really cool, and the https://github.com/PrintersForAnts/Salad_Fork is my next project

If you want to use the printers for parts and build something better, it won't be cheap, but have a look at the Voron Switchwire BOM to see what parts you can use from these printers and what you would need to purchase. https://vorondesign.com/voron_switchwire or another option is to look at the Printers for Ants site: The models you might attempt depend on the extrusion sizes you have (2020 or 1515): https://3dprintersforants.com/

this has printersforants energy

Do these QoL mods, run the ender relatively slow for reliability (like 100 mm/s) and start modding the V0 once you have it running. Happens to be my plan as well. Check out Printers for Ants. I'm going to be building a Trizero Plus50 for a 170x170 v0. Formbot v0.1 400€ and like idk 150€ for the mods

https://3dprintersforants.com has many more-rational choices :-)

Also, they said “how much is one of those with multi head”, which the tridex is. Although I’d probably do the dueling zero or double dragon because they’re adorable lol.

You wouldn’t be the first one to switch over ;) https://github.com/nateb16/VoronUsers/tree/master/printer_mods/nateb16/THE_FILTER

If you are planning on using it with a Voron, you may want to look into The Filter. It seems like its probably a better design. If you are going to use it with another enclosed printer it probably doesn't matter.

I just installed “The Filter” and took out the nevermore and the 3 bed fans I had running for chamber temps. Running the filter with the dual fan and the two side pods with individual fans seems to heat chamber even faster. link to The Filter

I think the advantage of the nevermore (or the filter which is what I used) is that you get a decent improvement in chamber temp. But, you can also just do this with bed fans and no internal filter. If my bed filter eventually fails, I'm probably just going to punch a hole in the wall and vent things straight out to the garage. I'll then just have bed fans.

The filter by nateb16 - heats the enclosure way faster and filters the ABS smells. I say it's better than the Nevermore

I went straight to a Stealthburner+cw2, Canbus(SB2040)/umbilical and Voron Tap out of the box but those are optional. I also gotten ACM for the deck and bottom covers. Otherwise minor items were wiring duct and extra WAGO connectors to make 5v and 24v power rails for future expansion. IMO changing the z sensor and ACM is the mandatory ones followed by the duct. Also consider "The Filter" rather than the Nevermore The Filter
