I guess this will do as an official start to the project. I’ll be using a Hemera, but I may need to get creative, as I plan to use a CANbus Duet 1LC toolboard, which will require a mount. It will be nice to only need a 4 wire connection for it though!

So cool to see some more getting built! I have loved mine so far! Just got the extrusion to redo the V4 I have into a V5 as well!

Roughly how much % faster are you pushing your V5 than V4 but still getting great prints? I appreciate it’ll depend on the material, curious about PLA for example, how different your V4 and V5 profiles look? Cheers!
I am running the same profile as far as speed, but I am running 4k acceleration on the V4 and 8k on the V5. V5 is capable of more as well. According to my last input shaper run I am good up to 12k on the V5. V4 doesn’t even show good to 5k lol

Well, I have high hopes for input shaping making for nicer looking parts, and maybe faster print speeds.
I don’t have the tool board yet, so I might build it without first, then upgrade after, depending on shipping times.
Nice. I need to keep trudging along with the v4 for the foresea future, but I’m enjoying watching all the v5 builds.

I think that’s the whole set. Now I just need to look up the rail sizes and make a cut list for the parts.
Well, and gird the loins to go cut the aluminium sheet.
6 MGN12H rails are going to cost a bit. I also need the CANbus toolboard, but that has to come from a specialty supplier, so will take longer.
