did I miss pictures of how you mounted the bed? I was looking at your materials and am trying to figure out how you handled the holes in the bed for mounting with the 12x12 heater pad.
where do I get the H2V2s fan mount stl? Also, I don’t see a plated printer or mp3dp entry on printables or thingiverse…
The plate is 305x305, So I made 3 counter bored holes that just fit in that area. Two on the corners and one in the back middle.
The heater sticks on the bottom and nearly clears them all. I trimmed off a tiny bit (I had my fingers crossed the elements did not go that close to the edge). Next build I will grab a thermal image to see the elements to see if I can trim more.
I will also get more pictures.
I think I can add it now. I am playing with the probe offset and fan duct. I guess it is good enough for now. Are you in need of it right now or can it wait a day or two?
As soon as I cover the electronics with something to take a couple nice pictures. It is time to start the release.
This fan holder is the last piece and I’d like to get it printed before I run out of that color.
Y will be noisier because of the unbacked rail.

I also had the wire in a weird place. I am going to change that up today to see if that might help. The Cable I had is pretty rigid, and I did not secure it well and I can make it a lot more flexible. I am very interested to see how that changes the graph.
I had to put a rubber band on the extruder tension arm, it flopped around. I also now have the reverse bowden and everything hooked up so they will probably get a little dirtier.

I got a notification that my nozzle accelerometer shipped yesterday so hopefully it will show up soon and I’ll see how much different the readings are from there vs the EBB36

For sure. Have them both mounted, change nothing. Then run them both to see the differences.
Oh side note related to that. With input shaping activated my 500mm/s at 10k accel didn’t work anymore. Only tried once but that seemed odd to me that total speed would decrease.

When I get back from traveling, I want to see if I can convert my Ender 5 into a v5. Not sure how many parts I could reuse

Take lots of notes, that might be good upgrade path.
I converted my Ender 5 Plus to the Mercury One.1 kit. I don’t see why you couldn’t convert it to a V5 just going to have to add some extrusions for the Z axis and figure out what size rails you will need. Might involve modifying the frame as well. Definitely make a build thread for that!!
Something is wrong.
I made a part that is 280mm wide, that is super cool…
Then, for the first time in my memory, I am using support on a part I designed for myself…I think I need a vacation.
Gyroid infill at 90mm/s is wild, Sounds like a sewing machine.

I know people love gyroid infill, but every time I use it on one of my machines the sound causes my brain to say “Nope… I want my machines to live longer than they will with that.” Could just be a bug in my brain.
There has to be a story there!

I agree 100% in this case I am testing the machine…and using it as a decorative flare. I would never use this in production, it is absolutely brutal on the machine. This has also caused the stepper s to actually warm up a little but nothing like way less current does in Marlin. Something is very differnt.
Pictures as soon as it is done. Basically I am being lazy and want to just get this moving a little faster. so I whipped up a quick cover and just running with it.

RPTPRP - Ryan’s printer that prints Ryan’s parts

Soooo……Raptor?
Edit: that was kinda a joke because the letters…… but I wouldn’t hate the idea of calling my printer a V1E Raptor
Possibly very marketable

Why so slow? You should be able to hit 120/150 no problem 
No kidding. The print I’m running now is topping out at 53 mm/s. Looking forward to seeing how fast I can get the v4.
