I remember watching your videos when waiting for my ender over a year ago. The amount of things I’ve learnt along the way through tinkering and modding this printer has been such an invaluable journey. Please continue these series and keep up the great work!
quick tip for the eye protection: if possible, never shine the laser directly onto the goggles as their protection degrades a whole lot quicker than just by scattered light
I see Scott Yu-Jan, I click. I swear these modification videos satisfy something primal inside of me 😂 the level of attention to detail here is awe-inspiring. It goes without saying, but the quality and content of your videos surprises and inspires me each time. Thanks for your work!
Scott, I just want to thank you for this series!! You are responsible for me buying my Ender 3 Pro, 2 years ago. I watched your first video and because of that my Ender is still themed black and red. But the mods never stopped. She is encased in acrylic and printing ABS better than my second printer ( Voron 2.4). You are an inspiration! Keep up the good work.
I got my first printer about a month ago and after much research I ended up getting the Ender 3, I could have gone for the Pro, CR10 or some other upgraded model but I had full intentions of upgrading and modding the printer myself (especially after watching your videos) and I'm really glad I took that route! I'm at a stage where I feel comfortable taking my printer apart, putting it back together, making mods etc and I've ended up not having just and Ender 3 but an Ender 3 tailored to me.
I recently got my own Ender 3 Pro because of your series just a week ago and just wanted to say thank you for making such high quality videos that could make any noob like me think he has a shot in this hobby.
You should take a look into modifying the ender 3 pro to a core xy printer! You can either print parts, or buy a kit. Would be a great addition to the ender 3 series which i absolutely love!
Man I remember being so excited when this video dropped. Almost a year later, I still come back and rewatch it for inspiration and it just heightens my anticipation for the next video. Keep them coming, Scott!!!
Which spray paint did you use for the aluminium parts? Automotive paint? And which „corrosive chemicals“ worked for you? Thank you in advance. I really like the look and consistency of your setup!
Thanks for making these videos, they encouraged me to get a ender 3 pro and never give up on getting it working well. I will also note that they have saved me from breaking the said ender 3 pro and have been amazing to watch.
Massive props to you for including STL links for these projects! I've gone through 3 pen plotter add-ons and 2 Cricut blade holder add-ons and didn't like any of them so far - gonna try yours and see how well it holds up!
I watched this right at release and I only realized now, that I was totally lucky, because I found part 1 yesterday and watched all parts after and today was the release of part 4
You're editing and filming is on another level! Every second was a pleasure to watch!! I love my E3! So cool to see you breathing more life into your older printer.
Damn. From one TH-cam creator to another I love your videography and editing / production. Creative, seamless, slick. Your videos must take a hell of a long time to make.
I bought an ender 3 s1 myself. Was a fantastic printer.... when it worked. Out of my 3 different Ender 3 printer, this one has had the most errors, and ones I've been unable to find the reasons and solutions to. It's currently unusable as it just tries to ram the nozzle through the print bed whenever I start a print. Maybe I've just been the only one to ever have issue with it since I can't find anything about them online. But I much prefer my Ender 3 v2. Been working great.
How many times do I have to watch this until I'm satisfied this is probably my 8th time watching this video the quality of it the music everything about it is just satisfying. "PS" You should make a discord. BTW I'm the one that made the hat on tiktok.
DUDE! Mad props for shouting out your 3D printing peers and Cameron, really goes to show you care about the creative community, mad respect. Also I was just thinking "this is the printer of Theseus" and behold, that shirt 🤯 As for my Q for the Q&A if you're still taking questions: I'd love to see how the bigger picture planning for your videos happens, it feels like literally everything you do has been filmed. Do you do everything in one go before hand (rehearse) then execute? Or mainly keep the camera rolling and just cull the unnecessary/camera unfriendly bits? I'm fascinated by your video structure so any behind the scenes/big picture stuff would be awesome to see! You're one hell of an inspiration dude, hope you know that!
Love these videos. They have everything, great narrative, awesome maker skills, epic video production and you have your own wonderful unique visual style and delivery. Such a joy to watch. Keep em up Scott.
Absolutely amazing video as per usual. I really appreciate those shoutouts at the end of the video. Given me a few ideas of my own too. Looking forward to the next video!
Curious how well the paint is gonna hold up, the black was anodized on but the roller wheels might degrade it in the channels. Regardless, cool to see you still working on this thing! Have you ever considered just trying to design a printer from scratch?
BRO That pen plotter hits hard!!!! I now have a new use for my Ender 3 V2. Good job pointing out the dangers of lasers, my personal diode lasercutter is within an enclosure to minimise any off axis glances with goggles. That MakersMuse video is also awesome especially for pointing out materials, the amount of people I've seen posting stuff they've cut that's incredibly toxic is wild. As for the vid, killer as always! Those rigid rods really beefed up the printer hey, looks like it's been hitting the gym 💪
11:38 and 11:52 . I am no expert, but it seems like a bad idea to test the glasses by reflecting the laser upwards toward your face/eyes or stuff like paper or wood that could catch on fire. I guess the laser is dispersed by the curvature of the glasses, but still looks risky.
What was your worst ( by worst i mean most damage/took the most to clean up) f@#$ up with the ender? I once had a leaky hotend from an improper nozzle change. What was yours?
A geared extruder would be a lot better for direct drive. It uses a smaller motor, but can achieve the same (or more) torque. I'm currently using the superlight orbiter v2 (on my vcore 3), and it can push more than 50mm^3/s of filament, which is 0.3mm layer height, 0.8mm line width, at like 500+ mm/s
Good lord that's ridiculous fast. No way it keeps near perfect quality while flying around like that... but then you must also have some insane cooling... sheesh
Nice mods.. Glass mirror tile from hardware store is best bed. Using small metal binder clips holds it tight to the heating element. 67 degrees first layer, 63 afterwards. Print won't come off till it cools 10 mins, then it comes right off. Clean with dry razor blade, no need to ever remove or replace bed. Any other bed is a hassle over time. ...Another tip I found was using 200% line size for first layer, helped me get perfect adhesion even on long prints.
Question - How much does the qaulity of the prints differ from your ender 3 pro to the s1 pro? Would be cool to see a comparison? :) keep up the amazing videos
They... probably don't? Even the cheapest 3d printer you can possibly find today should be capable of producing near perfect prints; we are way past the reprap days. Newer printers will give you quality of life improvements, may include auto bed leveling, support more materials or hotter temperatures or print faster(and don't forget the quality control if you get something like a Prusa, it probably won't come with a warped bed). But if quality is all you need, any (well calibrated) printer will work just fine.
Hello @Scott Yu-Jan, again, I can say it was worth to wait for your another video. 😃 It gives a lot of fun, and pleasure to watching the process of modifying your printer, I like when you're describing how you found the idea to do it.
I have one and I have to say it's fast sure but after you have done upgraded it you will soon find out you wish you have put all those money building a Voron 2.4
Thank you so much Scott I've been modding my ender 3 pro for months now and you started my rampage. I've re-watched this series too many times to count. Love your channel
You can get one at a microcenter for 100 bucks so if you’ve got plans to mod it then yeah they’ll make pretty good kits. Probably better to spend a bit more and get a more solid printer though, although I only have an ender 3 and 5 so I don’t have any real recommendations
Yes it’s worth it. You don’t need all this cake decoration either. I make tons of money with my stock Ender 3 pros and one reg 3. Good designs make money
I also started with an Ender 3. However I defected over to a Resin 6k printer. Your video's are an inspiration to the things you can do with the Ender 3. Thank you for the time you spend making these videos which are helpful and fun to watch.
I've done similar mods but went a slightly different route, squash ball feet are great for reducing vibrations, and for the z mod, kevinakasams double belted z is awesome, gets rid of all the lead screw issues and also the drawbacks of having parallel drive as it's a single motor. I use a "super whopper" from e3d and this comfortably holds the gantry up too. The white frame is awesome btw, haven't seen anyone go that far cosmetically before!
The stainless steel powder coated PEI surfaces are the way to go. You get two surface types, smooth and textured, the adhesion is great, and it's removable.
I've been using a small black paper clip for a larger stack of papers for my bed and have been working great. Also a linear x rail works nice and smooth. I was able to redesign the entire thing to bring the weight closer in towards the rail for better weight distribution which helped with wobble and speed.
A little tip with the dual z is that every time you turn off the printer they go out of alignment. A recommendation is to 1. get a belt to sync them and hold them when the machine is off and 2. get a mainboard with two stepper drivers
I started uploading content in the time between this video and your last upload. You approach tech and tech content with a perspective that most of TH-cam cannot replicate, and I just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration. I know I'm not alone in saying your uploads are an event not to be missed. Cheers to another 1 of 10 dude.
Epic win! You have the best mind in the creative design space imo. I am still in awe of your iPhone 3d scanner build and the Mac mini. Keep up the great and inspiring work.

Which keyboard do you use?
@Der Jojo (: I got a video dropping next week covering all the tools and stuff i use. i'll add this one to the list!
What are your go to / general print settings and how much have they changed with all the upgrades?
Do you consider getting a resin 3D printer?
What do you use for modeling you're prints
he. is. back.
Indeed
Finally.
i read this as "he. is. black."
Yesss

The fully white Ender 3 looks sooo good! Amazing setup
first one ever?
looks like a storm trooper its sick

if it's printing better than a voron I think there are some other issues...

If possible, can you share what was used to remove the black coat and what was used to paint the white on the rails?
Linear rails would be a nice upgrade. Maybe you could get it to work with klipper and IS for some super fast prints.
This channel would not exist without your help 3 years ago. thanks brotha
i'm glad to see you're still doing these! the effort put into your vids is absolutely amazing
Its practically a different device
So cool!
It is so damn impressive that you can sustain such a huge subscriber count on 16 videos in 3 years. Great video quality and awesome mods.
Quality trumps quantity.
The last shot of the video looks so natural yet so unreal. You are an excellent cinematographer.
Can you make a tutorial on how you spray painted the extrusions? Especially the corrosion part
You should take a look into modifying the ender 3 pro to a core xy printer! You can either print parts, or buy a kit. Would be a great addition to the ender 3 series which i absolutely love!
The editing is CLASS 🤌🤌🤌

I did most of the upgrades you did in the first 2 parts and the difference in performance was amazing. Also your editing style is sooo clean.
The glass beds are awesome for adhesion, you just have to flip them to have the shiny side up.
I‘m curious, I see you using different types of electric screwdrivers, which one is your favorite / would you recommend to people?
„12:35" Let's make a plotter...what's that music in the background?- likes it very much. I really admire what he does.
did you find it ? I also very like the music and shazam don't find it...
When the world needed him most, he came back.
dude, the production value of this video is insane. Keep up the incredible work
Massive props to you for including STL links for these projects! I've gone through 3 pen plotter add-ons and 2 Cricut blade holder add-ons and didn't like any of them so far - gonna try yours and see how well it holds up!
Are cricut blade holders worth a try?
Like can you achieve a decent level of precision using them?
@@yourlocaltoad5102 same level of precision as an actual cricut, assuming you can get your paper anchored well and secure the blade properly
7:21 Yoo, what a smooth transition for a slide with a subtle keyboard spacebar tap
I watched this right at release and I only realized now, that I was totally lucky, because I found part 1 yesterday and watched all parts after and today was the release of part 4
DAMN, the hyperlapse of the bed adhesion torture test was something else
Hey Scott, have you considered that they took inspiration from your ender 3 pro videos to make the ender s1? That's how I view it lol.
The took inspiration of the whole amazing community around the Ender 3 and added the easiest and best upgrades to the s1.
@@Nick-zb4yo they just made an ender 3 that doesn't suck
Its great you stuck with the old ender for i admire more to building customizing my machine.

What was your worst ( by worst i mean most damage/took the most to clean up) f@#$ up with the ender? I once had a leaky hotend from an improper nozzle change. What was yours?
those time lapses are so satisfying 👌
does painting the aluminum extrusions affect the surfact smoothness and therefore worsen the precision of the motion?
It shouldn’t cause any issues if you use a good quality spray paint and give it a even coat to prevent having varying surface coat thicknesses.
Had a long day at work. I made dinner, sat down, this was at the top of my suggested. Day made. Thanks.

why there are no nema geared? instead of and extruder geared?
@@borisgraell because geared extruder is much lighter.

I have one and I have to say it's fast sure but after you have done upgraded it you will soon find out you wish you have put all those money building a Voron 2.4
Soooo clean dude this is sick!!
Is it possible to run a volcano hot end on ender 3 pro with direct drive from creality
Yes, it is possible.
Thank you so much Scott I've been modding my ender 3 pro for months now and you started my rampage. I've re-watched this series too many times to count. Love your channel

The highest praise I can give you is this: yours are the only videos on youtube that I dont speed up
I dont know every single part about this kind of printer. But its very enjoyable and satisfying watching this
I'm glad you included the laser safety part, which many creators don't bother talking about
The stainless steel powder coated PEI surfaces are the way to go. You get two surface types, smooth and textured, the adhesion is great, and it's removable.
The amount that just a handful of your videos inspired me is huge. So glad to see you back!

A lot of work, but you have a New Ender, very nice, much pretty and full customized. Congrat from Argentina!
please go over more detail how and why to use the plotter. it blew my mind to see it drawn......love it
Nah nah nah, that transition from the black to white z-axis upgrade was 😩👌
Scott: Makes amazing improvements and upgrades.
Creality: WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN
I haven't even watched the video but the thumbnail looks so badass and I respect it
can we just appreciate how insane everything about this video was so EPICC
No wonder this video took way too long, your video editing is crazy professional and super satisfying to watch, thumbs up!
Epic win! You have the best mind in the creative design space imo. I am still in awe of your iPhone 3d scanner build and the Mac mini. Keep up the great and inspiring work.
The plot is a must
I never thought about attaching a pen to the printer head and making it draw... that's awesome!
I follow this channel for inspiration and to enjoy the creativity of editing.
Respectable effort❤
gotta appreciate the art and effort
3D Printer is improving but so as video shooting skills too.
The last part of timelapse was... omg ... (chef kiss)
Dude! Everything you make is so insanely good! The Quality of everything is just through the roof!
THANKS!
It should be noted the magnets are easy to install yet can mean knocking the laser around is also easier.
YES! So glad you also went with the dual z-axis upgrade!
