    Polycarbonate and Nylon are amazing plastics giving superior strength along with superior fatigue and temperature resistance. But most printers are not able to print with these materials. The Ender 3 suffers from this problem because of the Thermistor and PTFE tube in the stock hotend which limit the temperature to 260°C. In this video, we're going to fix that, and start printing Polycarbonate at 310°C!

    PURCHASE LINKS (Note, purchasing from these links does not help the channel):
    Micro Swiss Hotend with Titanium Heat Break: store.micro-swiss.com/collect...
    Duet Thermocouple Daughterboard:
    USA Purchase: www.filastruder.com/products/...
    UK Purchase: www.duet3d.com/DuetAddons/TC_...
    NOTE: At $30 this board seems expensive relative to the $2.50 board I was showing available on Ebay. There is an important distinction. The low cost board uses a MAX6675 chip, while the Duet Board uses 2 of the much better MAX31856 chips (Yes, you can operate two hotends with this daughterboard). Just a single chip MAX31856 board on Ebay costs $16, so in actuality $30 is a reasonable price. As with the genuine Duet Control Board, you are paying for top of the line components in a package that is guaranteed to work well for an extended period of time.

    Disclaimer: I was given the MicroSwiss hotend and the Duet Thermocouple Daughterboard for the purposes of making this video. I received no payment from either company. I form my own opinions, and, to the best of my abilities, I am unbiased in my reviews.

    Who are you guys who defend this crap? Dude, it's a ludicrously cheap 3D printer that's ludicrously well made and performs ludicrously well, not they didn't 'deliberately design the board to be basic' they designed a great quality printer at a price point that allowed many to enter a world of design and printing that wouldn't have been able to afford otherwise.

    First I saw some minor issues with this video, as you went on, it got worse.

    Just remember if you don't have the cash to upgrade your motherboard you can always go with the NTC100k thermistor instead. It can't measure as high as the K type that is used in this video. But it gets high enough and doesn't need any extra different connectors. Connects straight to your standard thermistor pins and can read accurately up to 350C.

    The duet board is open hardware. This means anyone can use the designs in pretty much any way they want including making an exact copy and selling it themselves.

    Love the explanation at the end of the video. I've work on steel molds for aluminum parts that get rubber seals molded into them and understanding differential thermal expansion is very important. I currently work in the jewelry industry where we use brass masters to make rubber mold and we often talk about shrinkage factors, and I like to correct people and says it's not shrinkage it differential thermal expansion. Keep up the good work.

    "If you buy a knockoff you're just supporting thieves" - I think its pretty clear you don't understand how open source works. Yes, a private company designed it, and in doing so they chose to utilize parts of the arduino due, so they had to open source it. This means ANYONE can manufacture and sell the board. It's not theft, it's just how open source works.

    While I do enjoy watching your videos, it just doesn't feel right to do $400 in upgrades to a $200 printer.

    Excited for the next video with the heated chamber! Currently looking into buying an ender 3 as my first printer and am keen to be completing upgrades similar to yours overtime! All your videos on the upgrades will be a great reference to work from.

    For those who have problems with warping: start with shielding your printer from draft and very low room reperatures. Printing in the summer mostly shows less warping than during winter time.

    The break out board for between the lcd and main board that gives you three pins, on teaching tech, he did a video on adding I believe bl-touch to the stock ender three with that board

    Perhaps the heat creep you are getting is due to the lower flow of the Noctua fan. TH3D made a video on that recently.

    That board actually has 2 usable pins, pin 29 is roughly in the center of the board near a capacitor, and pin 27 can be reassigned from the speaker. However the biggest problem is the micro doesn't have enough memory to enable support for any extended functionality. You always have to give up a feature to get another feature. It's designed just big enough for the stock functionality.
