I welcome any advice or criticism. I have never even seen a CoreXY irl and this is the V1, specifically 3D printed because I expect flaws to show up and I need to quickly iterate. The parts will be made of PETG and maybe I'll remake them out of metal later, once everything is figured out

The printer was a Monoprice MP Mini Delta V2 or a Malyan M300 Mini Delta. It was designed as a beginner printer, so even brand new it wasn't that good

This image shows two Benchys, models used to quickly benchmark printers. The benchy on the right was made with my old Creality Ender 3 v1 immediately after I got it, so before any tuning and calibration. The one on the right is literally the worst benchy that most people have ever seen. The print didn't even finish and it's EXTREMELY jittery.

Here, I've laid out the only parts worth reusing from this printer: the linear bearings, rods, belts, extruder and 4 stepper motors.

This image shows a part from the new design. Since this design follows the CoreXY mechanism, I needed to add mounts for pulleys to reroute belts in a very specific way. These are the carriages that will be moving in the Y axis.

I guess its time to let y'all know about the 40$ printer saga

A while back I found this thing at a thrift store, spent a week trying to restore it and promptly found out why it was only 40$. After that I gave up, disassembled it and I'm now making a better version

We were never expecting podium, the goal for this year was just to not get last place. However I was overworked due to school and having to manage the rest of the club and my budget was composed of the spare change in my couch, so I'm disappointed with my results so far

good stuff comes tomorrow

a while back I had to implement a file parser into my game because I couldn't find one that met my specific needs and I spent so long reimplementing stuff that was apparently part of C since at least the 90s

so yeah a normal amount

I need to start interacting with hackaday more, it looks like such an awesome community and I definitely have something to contribute

only two weeks until I'm free from the last competition of this school year, this time it's #micromouse

i recommend NVChad, its what I tried using before I stopped tortuting myself with vim and it gets me 99% of the way to where I need to be with ease

i remember when i was out to buy some stuff late at night and the sky was awfully clear. That's when I first realised that i never actually took the time to look up and see how gorgeous the night sky was. I now own a 600$ telescope (that i got for cheap) and often point my antennas at satellites
