Mercury-OUTDATED VS klipper_z_calibration

lets make it even better

I started with the Mercury One Cad file I think ( https://github.com/ZeroGDesign/Mercury/tree/main/CAD ) because it's nice and simple but when I needed to compare with the Ender 5 I used this: https://grabcad.com/library/creality-ender-5-pro-1

But ZeroG have documentation and STL downloads for the EVA and Mercury One.1 here : https://docs.zerog.one/ and their github is here: https://github.com/ZeroGDesign/Mercury

I assume you’re aware of the Mercury one project? ( https://github.com/ZeroGDesign/Mercury ) Is there an advantage to your design or a reason you wanted to go your own way? Very cool btw.

I believe you could make a Mercury One conversion on it. Although it was designed originally for the Ender 5, the X5Sa is similar enough so that it should work.

High flow versions of more modern hotends, like the Dragon or the Rapido will give you a better chance on that, but since you'll need to mod the toolhead to support them I'd also convert your printer to a CoreXY motion system by making the Mercury One mod, linear rails can support higher speeds/accelerations than v-wheels, and also have longer life.

Hello all - There are quite a few E5+ mods out there for converting to linear rails. I am just wondering if anyone knows the benefits between a standard linear rail mod like this versus the Zero G Mercury One Mod. I think I want the Mercury One but just posting this to get other peoples opinions. Ideally, I'd go with a Rat Rig Vcore3 but My E5+ is going to be around for a while. I can currently print at 5k acceleration (generous - could go higher) with a DragonflyBMS printing at 180mm's but would like to bump it up maybe a little more.

I see a Mercury One conversion in your future... 😁

I recently got klicky probe setup and working, and started looking into auto z offset calibration

Fully automatic z-offset with different beds and or nozzles. https://github.com/protoloft/klipper_z_calibration takes some initial tweaking but it’s awesome

It's from auto z calibration plugin. If you have klicky, it's the bees knees. https://github.com/protoloft/klipper_z_calibration

I doubt it matters but I am running auto-z-calibrate [ https://github.com/protoloft/klipper_z_calibration ] with klicky probe + sexbolt.

Klipper Z Calibration GitHUB

so lately i'm reading a lot about Probes like the Quickdraw_Probe or Klicky-Probe. Currently using a PL-08N2 for probing. Now the will to change to a klicky probe is here looking forward to use klipper_z_calibration Plugin. So quickdraw would be a nice drop-in and everything seems easy, but vor my Voron 1.8 i can't find a decent looking dock for the probe. On the other side Klicky-Probe looks quite similar and especially the dock for the Voron 1.8 looks promising. My problem now is with the Software. I'm planning to use the Klipper specific "Dockable_Probe.md" to be most directly integrated into Klipper without the fuss dealing with those additional *.cfg's Klicky-Probe brings with it. But ony Quickdraw seems to make use of Dockable_Probe.md and Klicky as i said comes with a big load of additional cfg's i don't want to fiddle with.

Hey everyone! I'm looking for Python programmer to assist me with a klipper plugin for offset calibration for tool changer. Similar to https://github.com/protoloft/klipper_z_calibration
