Absolutely
Yeah, based on video clip durations…
- Spent ~40hrs building on camera, and many hours designing/assembling off camera.
- Looks like ~30% of that time was marked as fluffs up, fails and troubleshooting problems (e.g. dead CANBus board, and general CANBus setup)
- ~14hrs was experimenting and making non standard features.
- Only ~11hrs was spent assembling and wiring up the Core V4 design.
Future build should be way faster with knowledge gained from V4.
So, am more likely to eventually build a V5 than tear down my V4 desk ornament/lamp that happens to print.
Not sure when though, especially if LowRider 4 is available to build soon?
Build the V5 to print the new LR4 parts on……
I printed the v5 parts on the v4, so I think that counts.

I did the same. Hoping the V5 will be up and running by the time we see any LR4 parts. But we will see

I need just the fan mount for the v5 and I have decided this will be a v5 upgrade of Ernest, my v4.
Ron went from being a delta kossel ultra budget v5 build and now I’ve turned it into an ender -style bed slinger. Makes more sense. It lacks the refined components a v5 would need to really perform.
Before:
After:
Just need a few parts like a home-made bed motion system and the x and y mounts, core mounts printed and it should go back together once the new power supply gets here.
I’ll continue with the “slow build” thread… This was just a flash in the pan.
