I'm super happy with the kit, if you do go ahead with it, I would recommend: - get a plain square mirror from the local hardware store and cut it to the right dimensions ($4 for a glass cutter) - get a BLTouch or other ABL, helps a ton with bed levelling - Don't get the XL version unless you need the build height, in 8 months I haven't printed anything higher than 7" (175mm) but my 400XL Z-Axis goes all the way to about 20" (500mm)
I had to disable my heated bed because of the thermal runaway and was having pla prints warp like crazy. Thank you for showing how to do this!!!
Great video! I have an ender extender in the mail and might try this out as I was concerned what you experienced would happen to me too.
Thanks! That's awesome, it's a great upgrade
Good job Lucas!
Thank you!
With the heat code, did you just add that to the CURA settings manually?
Yes, I added it to the start GCODE section in the printer settings manually
I'll have to look into this, i was wanting to do an ender extender, do you have any thoughts on that?

@@LucasBuildsStuff - Do you use the mirror as the actual build surface....? vs a flexible metal plate, borosilicate glass, etc....?
Has anyone done this in Klipper?
I'm not familiar with Klipper but this article touches on start GCODE in Cura with Klipper, hope it helps!
