MUST-HAVE Voron 0.1 Mods and Upgrades

Strange that you had problems with bed adhesion - that's one thing my V0.1 has been absolutely flawless at.

Great Video! How ever I have an issue with putting thread locker on the screws/nuts. When screws/ nuts are into plastic. They just have a nature to come loose. Which is usually by plastic shrinkage or long term stress pressure. Putting thread locker will prevent the screw from just falling out. But you will still just have a loose joint to deal with over time. With thread locker you might have an issue with re-tightening the screws/nuts. Designing and printing 3D plastic parts for prototyping is great and fun. But plastic is not a long term part for high load or rapid movement situations. It's a metamorphic solid material. Which means plastic parts on load bearing structures are not a great idea. As in: Voron's 0.1 bed attach brackets, motor supports, gantry brackets, and bearing structures. Sure, it will get you started and that's been fun. But, this is why top notch printers and other machines. Why they cost more, is because of their machined metal parts for longevity.

Hey man, thanks for these awesome videos! They helped temper my expectations after ordering my 0.1 kit! It's the most fun I've had with 3d printing!! I followed pretty much all your suggestions with zero regrets! The touchscreen is just such a cool and useful feature that just destroys the other printers I own. I'm now looking at installing auto bed levelling and I also suspect my bed levelling nuts are working themselves loose, so I'm thinking of just locking my bed dead flat and removing the springs all together, like how prusa and bambu have. I reckon this could possibly make the v0 even more rigid and accurate with reliable bed levelling. Either way, I'll give it a go and keep you posted! Keep up with the great videos, and I would love to see you do a 2.4!

Great video! The mini stealth burner extruder on the updated 0.2 is far easier to maintain than the mini afterburner. The only mods I’ve made to mine (beyond those included in the LDO S1 kit) thus far are a set of slimline carry handles and a clip on mount for a Microsoft HD3000 webcam.

What’s the mod for the scrubber brush? Doesn’t seem to be in the description

should try annex k3 if you want a something slightly larger

Why not going CAN?

really like your videos, keep it up! you said that you would like to build a voron 2.4 in the future but have you also considered buying bambu lab's p1p (or the x1)? the budget would be probably similar, maybe the p1p would be cheaper actually. I know that one is completely open source and the other is the opposite but in the end when you need the machine just to print reliably (and fast) is the endless tinkering worth it?

I started building a 0.1 back in November and I just cannot bring myself to finish it... lost interest because I kept getting frustrated with the instructions and issues along the way.

Thx for your work :)
