I am (slowly) working on mounting ACM panels to my Voron 2.4 to try to get my chamber temps up to reduce/eliminate warping on big ASA prints. I only needed 12 of these parts, so I chose to print them sequentially.

Want to know how slow my progress has been? Well, this photo proceeded this post and I made that post weeks ago… I’ll crack open the cable chain and get this ball rolling again soon. Or maybe I’ll ditch the chains and go to a USB toolhead. But that will require me to print some parts, so I guess I have to fix this. And if I’m doing that it’s going to probably be ‘good enough’ for quite some time… 🙃

There’s nothing major in the print queue, but I do want to make sure the printer is ready to go when something does turn up.

    Why not go for a CANBUS toolhead with umbilical cable? That ditches the chains too and doesn’t require that many new parts to print.

      USB > CAN IMO, but as I said in my post that’s going to require some printed parts which means I need to fix my wire break, which means the printer will be working again, which means I can put off a decision for a while.

      LDO’s nighthawk looks very tempting though. I’ll probably buy the parts, fix my printer, print what I need, and put it all aside for my next wire break.
