Topic: need Mod Masters for SD2
since Solidoodle has become a field of dreams. I need all you master Modifiers of SD 3D printers to help me gather a shopping list of how to turn my SD2 into a 6x6x6 version of what the workbench apprentice was hiped up to be. need a duel E3d type extruder carriage with fan mounts for cooling extruders and filament motor also fans for extruder tip for PLA and bridges etc. then film bed heaters (correct watts/temps) motherboard to run all this without needing soldered etc. I already have vapor/fume removal fan. looks like I will be scrapping my $200 "deluxe case inclosure" for a home made plexi cover with easy removal of panels for access when needed while also covering Filament rolls in use to help keep them dry. the newest hotends are 1/3rd size of old SD2 hotend and can be used for all popular plastics even exotics. new mother boards have everything including micro SD card slot for computer free printing.
OH also need compact power supply of 400-500 watts that can either hang on rear of printer next to mother board with cooling fans for both. or inside bottom left out of way if possible.
anything Im missing?
sounds just like what SD promised nearly then some. bet I can do all this for under the lowest price of the Apprentice also.
then add the scanner kit posted on this forum, Filastruder and regrinder and still be under workbench price just smaller build area which is all I need for my needs.
I dont think 3D printing has gotten fast enough or fine enough detail to need the large build plates yet. I dont intend to let my printer run for days on end just to print a plastic item, especially when most such items can be bought retail from injector/blowmold manufacturers for pennys compared to that time, material, electric use.
