Nice to hear that. Actually i was in a similar situation where i wanted to convert my Ender 3 Pro but was not able to find any to the depth info or tutorial on TH-cam.
You have to derack it or you are going to have a pretty big headache latter on the build, the secret it's to derack before putting the belts, run one belt and cut with some slack, remove the belt, cut both belts exactly the same length using the one you already measured, run both belts and leave the same slack on both sides you need to have it tooth perfect or you can get some weird racking,then tension the belts equally
it turns out that the bltouch x cariage you are using for v6 with volcano heatblock I've tried using v6 with stock heatblock bltouch pin is too low from the nozzle
good evening from Miami, friend, I wanted to ask you if you published the STL of the two parts that are attached to the X axis on the linear rail and the one on the bl touch, more than a month ago I made a printer similar to that one and I have not been able to use it for Those two pieces, MGN12H to MGN9H adapter, minute 20:26 second part, I would really appreciate it.
Hey Vladimir, Sorry for late response. Did you get the stls? The STL for the MGN12H to MGN9H adaptor is available in the official voron switchwire github repo. Anyways i am linking it here for you in case you haven't got that: MGN12H to MGN9H adaptor: github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Switchwire/blob/master/STL/Gantry/XZ_Axis/X_Carriage/%5Ba%5D_x_bearing_block.stl And regarding that BL touch one, I am unable to understand which one you are refering to. Can you specify a bit? or post the timestamp.
Thanks! Glad you liked my build. I sourced the door closer(alternative to keybak) from www.robu.in Here's the direct link if it helps: robu.in/product/automatic-punch-free-wire-door-closer-for-all-type-doors-black-500g-pull/
Hi my friend, where can I find the MGN12H to MGN9H adapter STL that you mount at 20:26? I can't find it the GitHub of the Conversion nor in that of the BLTouch Adapter.
Yes, you are right. It is not available in the conversion github nor in bl touch x-carriage mod github. You have to download it from the official voron switchwire github. It is inside X carriage folder names as "[a]_x_bearing_block.stl".
Yes, i printed all the parts on my Ender 3 pro before conversion. The only mods i had were Bi-metal heatbreak for Trainglelabs and satasana fanduct. All other mods than these were not that functional for ABS printing. I use SuperSlicer for my slicing. I have printed the parts using eSUN ABS+ filaments.
Sorry for the late reply. Yes, conversion kits will work on it. Just make sure the kit is matching with the y-axis profile of your printer, i.e. 2020 profile or 4040 profile.
Looks good.what belt are those? They look like the normal PP/metal reinforced ones,. If so, u want to swap them out for fibre reinforced rubber ones (gates RF)
I am preparing an un official BOM. Please wait for it. If you want more information regarding sourcing, then please join Voron India discord server: discord.gg/YvgbGm5fQc
@@HyperMakes - thanks for that. I will look into it. I currently have the inductive probe ready to install but wondered as i had a BLTouch left over from before. I will look into the quickdraw as I like the look of these types of probe. Klicky and the Euclid probes are also an option. Really good videos BTW, They provided an excellent gap between the original assembly docs and the CAD so used them extensively. Thanks for your work
Hi, Do you have the links for the parts you final;ly settled on. I have the Omron probe and it just isnt very good - it triggers randomly when hot and reads a different value for the corner with the heater wires attached. Thanks in advance
@@HyperMakes incredible work...when I first saw you ender mod video I have to admit I thought "it's still not Prusa worthy" but your results (even tho I hate being proven so) proved me wrong....did u use an enclosure over ender? venting? thanks
hello and thank you for uploading your progress of your ender switchwire conversion. I am currently doing the same to my ender. I have been having a hard time finding the chainlinks that go with this conversion. by chance can you share a link to the official chainlinks or at least the ones you used in your build? Thanks sooooo much again. Take care!
You will need either 10x10 mm drag chain or 10X11 mm drag chains. Normally sourcing depends on the user, so it's up to you from where you want to get it from. People get the official chains from aliexpress or suppliers in their country. I used these chains: www.flyrobo.in/10x10mm-cable-drag-chain-wire-carrier-1-meter?search=drag+chain If you already have a printer, then you can print out these chains by hymness1: github.com/hymness1/VoronUsers/tree/master/printer_mods/hymness1/10x11mm_chain_VSW
what type and size of idler bearing do you use for the y axis tensioner? I am planning to replace my y axis tensioner ender 3 v2 like the one you are using
Modified hotend with bi-metal heatbreak, temporary enclosure, eSun ABS+ and printer tuned to voron print specifications. Note that traditional ABS requires a little more chamber temperature than ABS+.
@@joshuadsylva8297 Capricorn PTFE tubing is better than normal PTFE tubing that comes with the printer. It is advertised that it can print as high as 280°C and you can certainly try. I went with bi-metal heatbreak because they are cheap nowadays and you don't have to worry about the high temp degrading the PTFE lining of your tubing.
I read the BOM ender 3 SW but I'm confused as to where the M8x16 BHCS bolt is placed, I've also looked at CAD but can't find the M8X16 bolt, is M8x16 needed for this mod and in which part?
Hello, thank you for the great work! I'm going to use the door closure, too. Because keybak is expensive. But what size of door closure should I use? When I looked it up, there are several sizes.

Glade to finally see someone making ender switchwire conversion videos
Nice to hear that. Actually i was in a similar situation where i wanted to convert my Ender 3 Pro but was not able to find any to the depth info or tutorial on TH-cam.
I've been searching for ender switchwire conversion vids. hoping that you'll upload part 3 soon.
Yes mate. My bad it is getting delayed due to some personal reasons.
Looking forward to more videos! Excited to see the print quality relative to the Ender 3.
Sure! My bad the videos are late due to my personal reasons.
I love your video series for building the switchwire from ender 3 pro. You have made the process so much easier! Thank you very much!
Glad to help! Thanks for watching.
Wow, those parts are beautifully printed. and the SwitchWire you build, looks absolutely Stunning.
Thanks, Glad you liked the build. Next parts are coming soon. Sorry for the delay being caused by some personal reasons.
Yeah. Came to say this as well. The print quality on the plastic parts is amazing. Nice conversion!
great , please part 3 early
I am trying my best as i have exams coming. Please be patient.
Thank you so much for the videos!
Glad you like them!
Nicely done kruze 👍

Beautiful Prints! What Material And What Printer was it printed on?
It was printed on the same printer that i am converting in my video. The material is eSun ABS+.
are you using ender 3 stock stepper motors for x and z?
No.
I like your music :)
do you print abs parts with ender 3 stock and what slicer do you use? the print looks very neat what brand of abs are you using?

How does the BL Touch cope with the hotend - does it melt? Get too hot?
Not good at all. I replaced the bl touch before even doing a first print. I went for inductive prove initially then, moved on to quickdraw probe.
@@HyperMakes - thanks for that. I will look into it. I currently have the inductive probe ready to install but wondered as i had a BLTouch left over from before. I will look into the quickdraw as I like the look of these types of probe. Klicky and the Euclid probes are also an option.

can i use stock ender3pro motors?

what type and size of idler bearing do you use for the y axis tensioner? I am planning to replace my y axis tensioner ender 3 v2 like the one you are using
I am using F695 bearings for the idler assembly.
Can I reuse 4234 motor (for (x,y,z)) from ender3 prod?
Yes you can. But if possible go for a higher torque stepper motor for y-axis.
@@HyperMakes do you think nema17 17hs15 1504s1 or 4240, is better!?

@@HyperMakes no problem man, take all the time you need, just hope everything is okay
door closer 1000g？ 800g？500g? 😮
500g is enough. Anything more than that is too much and will cause print problems.
I wouldn't take the carriage off the rail.
Any worries about all the printed structural parts creeping?
Not at all. ABS+ is pretty solid and has almost no material creep or decay unless it is sitting under direct sunlight for long hours.
