@scalz - I love to see custom hybrids of solid printers! If you make a blog post or something on your new build at any point please drop me a link to it so i can have a look :)
What could you possibly be missing when you're doing this at a hobby level? o.O

Laser cutter? :satisfied:

I have to say, my slightly modded Anet A8 printer that I bought recently has been doing pretty good. I had been looking at some point to migrating the electronics to a coreXY frame, but that probably won't be any time soon.Besides, it does what I need for now..

@dbemowsk - If you only want it to do what you need it to do then you're all good. I'm a little bit of a perfectionist and whether or not i need it to have a feature, i tend to attempt to get the printer to have that feature anyway. But at the end of the day if you're only using it for personal things and it does everything you want it to, then there is no need to change :)
What i will say though is: I thought that i would be okay with just a RAMPS and arduino board, but i pushed the boat out and went for a DUET WIFI board, and damn these things are beautiful to use!

@Samuel235 So do you have dual extruders?

@Samuel235 So do you have dual extruders?
@dbemowsk - I don't. And right now i'm not even thinking about it as i've done my far share of detailed printing and i do not wish to print anything slow and small scale that requires 0.08 mm layer heights and support everywhere. My printer has been on solid for the last 88 hours on 4 prints doing exactly that.
I'm trying to slowly approach my maximum speed, printing comfortably at 60mm/s at the moment but would like a little more. My printer is pretty basic still, i'm still a student living at home so i'm saving money everywhere i can right not but as soon as i have no income issues, dual extruder, advanced bed probing, enclosure, quick change hotends with a tornado extruder maybe.

Aren't these devices basically Arduinos? It's written on the title atmega328. If so if we could get our hands on the code, we could make our own 😀

I finally found the place where the Chinese get their code and design for the "Transistortester". It comes from a german site
a very extensive project. I doubt if I will ever be able to match or even comprehend what they accomplished. :bow: -

@AWI great digging! :+1:
The specs and list of functions are impressive.
Do you think the Chinese hardware is an identical copy of this design? -

Why not? Chinese are great at copying stuff :D

Do you think the Chinese hardware is an identical copy of this design?@Yveaux I soldered the thing myself so build quality is .... ;-) The board I received looks to be solid as well as the components.
Accuracy in resistor/ capacitor meaurement is fine (~5% which is also the toleration of the components tested) Semiconductor analysis is enough for me with Fet / Junction transistors as I can determine the most important characteristics (including the pin layout!) which are within 10% of the datasheet. (pins are 100% correct :-)) -

@gohan I used a kit. There is also a description and suggestions on improvement of the "Chinese clones" in the documentation of the project.

@AWI "I soldered the thing myself so build quality is ...."
I guess the missing word is: "top", and the last dot is just interpunction. -
I need little advice: is it worth buying the Ts100 soldering iron for 50€ + some accessories (holder and one extra tip, I already have a laptop power supply I can use) or go for a Hakko FX-888D for 120€ (you get holder in the price and extra tips cost significantly lower but I don't know if I ever need many different sizes)?

After changing my HA and network to new location I made some changes to my workshop. Still some work in progress.
