E3D Volcano- http://www.soliforum.com/topic/8795/e3d … -printing/
E3D Hobb Goblin- http://www.soliforum.com/topic/11465/e3d-hobb-goblin/
Claghorn's direct Y drive- http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:593006

Volcano: Eruption pack recommended. You get several nozzles and since the thermistor is secured differently (no kapton) you may find it easier to start with a new one.
Goblin: Print new tension arm, drop in, adjust EEPROM, tweak tension, enjoy!
Claghorn design: This print is much easier with a Volcano. One crazy user said he cranked on out in 45 minutes.

All 3 are the most gratifying mods I have done over the last year and recommend all.
Good to see you back!

There are quite a few things in my signature that are worth searching in the forums here. It shouldn't be too difficult to find the walk through for each of them.

Lawsy carriages with the LM8UU linear bearings is a big one - also should replace the 8mm smooth rods when doing it - the stock rods wont last long with the bearings.

an E3D hot end is a very worthwhile upgrade as well.

there is a sticky regarding the Z rod "fixes" - I havent needed to do anything there - yet...

and some have gone direct drive on the Y axis - I know there is a big post about that, not sure if it is a sticky tho...

I think the stickies at the top of this forum cover it? The z-banding (two solutions) and replacement x/y carriages with bearings are the big ones. I agree, however, that it would be nice to know if there's anything "new" that's not stickied. I'm also looking at the firmware update with the hysteresis fix, but not 100% certain that it's going to work for my 4.

Hi guys. Okay, so I got no bites on trying to find someone to tweak my 3 so, it looks like I am going to do it. I have been away from the forum for a year and would appreciate a quick rundown of the latest must have mods and tweaks. I already have the glass bed, doors, better extruder and fan but maybe there have been improvements like the XY bearings, Z axis rod and such I need to catch up on before I adjust everything.

So, please, what would you suggest I look at? Thanks, amigos. With SD adrift or sinking this is the mothership now.
