That's right the latest version of Marlin driving an SKR Pro and a Geeetech 3 in 1 mixing...

Well I am very happy with this new hotend. Not a single filament jam yet!!! I am having other temp related issues. I think we will print with lower than desired commanded printed temps. I just think...

So I have collected the 3 files that I have made to get the Geeetech 3 in 1 mixing hotend up and working in an i3 style printer. the i3 style home built printer i made these parts for uses Geeetech...

I tried to reach out to Geeetech on Facebook to inquire about purchasing the parts that secure the 3 in 1 mixing hotend to the carriage and not only did they not respond but they also deleted my...

Oh ya. So the Geeetech built 3-in-1 hotend finally arrived. I am so excited for a newly designed 3 in 1 mixing hotend. The diamond hotend is such a frustration but I am thinking I will have a better...

Well it has been a while and I never got the Geeetech 3 in 1 mixing hotend from Banggood or bangood or w/e. It got lost in the mail. Tracking showed it moving to about half way across my state and it...

Well the BondTech dual drive extruders are great. absolutely everything I expected them to be. But they did not solve the problem. And honestly I didn't think they would. While they do allow for...

Oh wow that was some fast shipping. Things get to the good old USA from Sweden a lot faster than things from China. Well I am still waiting on the geeetech 3 in 1 mixing hotend before we can get...

I have another issue with this printer that is the 3 cheap ebay titan extruders. I tried to save some change and it is costing me. Most hobbed gears have a groove or a channel where the filament...

So despite not having the original heat breaks to put back in the diamond hotend I am still trying to get results out of this all the way up until the new hotend arrives. I already got the high...

I did get through all the calibration steps and the printer is printing ok for single color prints. Here are the last round of my calibration prints.. ...

Well I did some research on the max safe working temps of the ptfe tubing and 250-265 isn't bad. Then I found this blue ptfe tubing that can handle up to 300c. I got excited and ordered 2M of it. It...

Ya i am back to struggling with jams again. Although no where near the level I was having this problem before. I might need even more cooling. I am printing at 230c which brings up another point. The...

The diamond hotend came with thermal tubes that accepted PTFE liners but i swapped them out for all metal micro swiss heat bricks so I dont have to worry about printing with the higher temps. That...

I slept on it and decided on a careful approach to clearing the jam. One by one I removed each heatsink and placed a piece of a silicone mat blocking airflow to the heatbreak allowing it to heatsoak...

Well Fishpaste! Everything was going great. I didnt get to a finished print yet but i am getting closer. Here are the results of my first 3 attempts.. ...

I am not sure how to make them mix. But i understand we must load translucent filaments for the mixing colors. magenta, cyan, and yellow but all translucent. And I saw a place in marlin 2.0.5.3 to...

Ya you seem to know me well at this point. lol. I am so comfortable building because that is all i do all day every day. I am so comfortable here. But we will get it. As for the diamond hotend yes we...

And so this completes all 3 32 bit printer reworks. I now have 2 custom multi material printers. After I am done cleaning my workspace from all the hardware and tools and stuff and put away the...

I love these dual mode displays. I remember the crowd and not so long ago that discovered and bought the TFT but had to keep the LCD12864 screen. Always the excuse about babystepping the z offset or...

The rest of the front panel is designed, printed, and installed. The extruder is back in it's place and we are coming together. I have some final wiring to do then I have to make a mount for the 3...

I am getting close to completion on this machine now. When i am done i will upload all the files i made for this to thingiverse and share with all as i did with the other 2. But that is later. Right...

The mainboard is all setup and ready to go. 6 TMC2209 drivers all configured for UART. There are 2 stepper cable plugs on the mainboard for the dual Z motors and there is a splitter hiding at the...

Well finally i got the parts i ordered back in March. Now we can move forward with this project. So in the mail today i got the TFT35 V3.0 dual mode touchscreen, i got the 6 TMC2209 UART stepper...
