Voron VS ReDuplicator-MK3x

Anti-features like this just make me more convinced to get a Voron instead. Open source design, great community, almost infinitely moddable, and at least as capable as the Bambu. You can self-source all the parts or buy kits from various vendors.

However, I say all this as someone that is technically inclined, wants to tinker, and is a fan of the open source. Somebody that wants plug-and-play should definitely look at another printer.

"The original goal of the VORON project, back in 2015, was to create a no-compromise 3D printer that was fun to assemble and a joy to use. It had to be quiet, clean, pretty, and continue to operate 24 hours a day without requiring constant fiddling. In short a true home micro-manufacturing machine without a hefty price tag. It took over a year in development, with every part being redesigned, stress tested and optimized. Shortly after the release a vibrant community formed around the project and continues to grow today. This community is part of what makes VORON such a special experience.

What was once a one-person operation has grown into a small tight-knit group of engineers united under a common design ethos. We're dedicated to creating production-quality printers you can assemble in your kitchen. It's this passion and dedication that drive us to push the boundaries just a little further. We build space shuttles with gardening tools so anyone can have a space shuttle of their own.

You can use the configurator at the site to try and find a size that could work. However, I must warn you that if those are V-slot extrusions you most likely won't be able to reuse them on a Voron: the slot is to wide to hold the MGN9 linear rails correctly.

Might check out their channel on the Voron discord (can find a link at vorondesign.com) and ask if anyone has any pictures.

I went this route with mine, ReDuplicator was a fun build and next I'll probably convert it to Voron Switchwire but it's happily printing now.

I'm currently building a Reduplicator and was curious if one could print the Y-carriage using something like Atomic CarbonFiber PETG. I found a suitable model and have seen "real" carbon fiber carriages available for other printers. I suspect it may not be rigid enough but perhaps a honeycomb pattern in-fill using CF PETG might get the job done. Has anyone tried something like this before?

PETGis slightly more flexible, but if the mount is designed with the right thickness/reinforcement that shouldn't be a problem. I printed all the parts for my Reduplicator build in PETG and I haven't had any issues with lack of rigidity. I understand that Prusa uses PETG for their printed parts as well, which is a pretty good endorsement. :)

I recently rebuilt the frame on my Monoprice Maker Select v2 using the Reduplicator plans. It won't apply directly to the parts you have, but you might be able to use the design as inspiration for building your own frame. It's based around 3030 extrusion and is rock-solid.

I recently changed out the hotend in my frankenstein printer (originally a Monoprice Maker Select v2, but pretty much every component aside from the stepper motors has been replaced, even the frame via Reduplicator) for a Titan Aero, and I'm loving it. It's got some nice advantages over a discrete Titan/V6 direct drive combo (more compact and rigid, shorter filament path, etc.). Might be worth a look. :)

I also just finished up a ReDuplicator build, which specifies M3 heatserts in many of the printed parts (and has larger, 4mm holes in the .stl files to match). I used these and they worked great, with a little practice setting them. (If you go with heatserts, the specialty soldering iron tips like this are nice for better control.)
