I bought the Velleman K8200 3D Printer back in 2014 for tinkering and getting my feet wet into the 3D printing world. Since then I learned lots about 3D printing, specificially construction, firmware, and its electronics. Now, the K8200 works, but not consistent as I would like it to be. Since I’m looking to start the Teardrop Trailer soon, I decided I wanted a 3D printer to just work. Set a print, and let it run. So, this is the start of the Ender 3 V2.
Ender Pro Board is V.4.2.2, the same board as the Ender3V2 (except with noisy driver)

10:20 Had a problem upgrade klipper/mainsail and such. had to recompile
make menuconfig
run
make, and grabklipper.bininto sdcard asfirmware.bin -
11:23 Could not get this configuration to build on raspberry pi zero, which is the board that is controlling the ender3. so ended up using the same configuration to build the firmware on the raspberry pi 3b

11:52 Trying out
https://github.com/th33xitus/kiauh.gitto recover if this works.. then lets keep using this script- uninstalled klipper, and reinstalling it

- 04:51 Successfully used
kiauhto install klipper withpython3, python2 did not work - 07:15 Issue was here.. with
adxlandmcu. This was enabled awhile ago to get the adxl to work. had to comment out to get it to run again.
- 14:05 Fixed some of the
moonrakerissues- need to look more into the configurations folder. and how things are being
migrated to
~/printer_data- read more here - for now, things are all working again

- 06:53 Problem with temperature spikes of the extruder, it turns out that the
thermistor was shorting when the printer was moving around.

- 05:03 Updated so that raspberry pi zero sits inside metal enclosure with 24v->5v converter.
- The problem now is that, i would have to leave the Ender3 fan humming if i wanted to get access to klipper screen.

- : 2023-02-27 04:58 Make a relay circut to cut off power to main board for +Ender3 @morning
- 06:42 printing horizontal power supply for Ender3, and fansilencer.
- 06:50 there is a CoreXY conversion for Ender3 - here on printables

Initial Upgrades
Track of things I’ve added to the Ender 3 V2 to make it work the way I want it to work. Firmware # Upgraded to this firmware. GitHub - Jyers/Marlin: Marlin is an optimized firmware for RepRap 3D printers based on the Arduino platform. | Many commercial 3D printers come with Marlin installed. Check with your vendor if you need source code for your specific machine. this lin Used UBL with BL Touch 10x10 Added Octopi # Allow for remote monitor could use Octopi to be the ‘host’ and send instruction, but were gonna use it for remote monitoring fixed under voltages with electrical tape - The neverending undervoltage error: octoprint decided on klipper and mailsail instead better fan?
