Finally started building my first Voron 3D Printer: a Trident 300 kit by LDO Motors!

Voron Trident build progress: motors in, X gantry in... Next up: belts!

Voron Stealthburner + Clockwork 2 + E3D Revo (routing those wires has been one of the hardest things I had to do so far...)

Bottom panel and din rails are in!

Stealthburner ready, with Chaoticlab CNC Voron Tap assembled!

Had to repin the Chaoticlab CNC Voron Tap cable, as the LDO Toolhead PCB has 24V-S-GND instead of S-GND-24V

The wire loom is now connected to the toolhead and inside the drag chains!

Print bed is in place, wiring is now complete!

And... it is is ready!! 🤩

Now starts the time to configure and calibrate everything!

If you've been following along this, I thought it is worth now to post some thoughts after configuration and calibration and a few prints! 🙂

First, it took me a few prints until I realized there was a protective film on the smooth PEI side of the build plate that we are supposed to remove... 🤦‍♂️

Second, I was having really bad 2nd layers for no apparent reason... thinking it was me just hitting the max flow rate of the Revo 0.4 nozzle, I ordered a new Revo High Flow 0.4 which arrived this morning... my surprise was when I removed the old one and it was "blue", which means... 0.6! 🤦‍♂️

@pedrolamas
Everyone has these moments. I had sth similar: I wanted to calibrate the extruder, but instead change the rotation distance for the x-stepper and it took me a week to find out why the circles turned oval.
@pedrolamas Ask me when I printed with PLA, thinking that it was a PETG…
@pedrolamas looks great! Enjoy it. Six months in and my trident is easily my favorite I’ve had a chance to use.
@amd thank you! Granted the point of this is to print ABS, but I do wonder how bad PLA prints inside of this thing... Guess I need to at least leave the door open when I do that! 🤣

@pedrolamas mine prints PLA like a champ with the doors open and the roof off.

I added the filament snap latches to the roof to make it easy to take on and off.

@amd got a link for that?

@pedrolamas

I’m not a fan of the stock panel clips.

I use the filament snap latches for the roof and front doors https://www.printables.com/model/172368-voron-24-filament-latch-or-any-2020-extrusion

and these annex engineering panel clips everywhere else https://github.com/Annex-Engineering/Annex-Engineering_User_Mods/tree/main/Printers/All_Printers/annex_dev-Panel_2020_Clips_and_Hinges
