#Monolith Zero

The best way to avoid issues and improve the experience is with several test fits with printed parts and iteration until the desired outcome…

Another uninterrupted, ~10-hour day spent on the "V0" with good, but not particularly interesting progress. I've managed to work out a ton of stuff today including:…

In earlier posts I claimed that I wanted to reuse the same toolhead for the small printer but with a different belt clamp and no Beacon mount…

The XY gantry serviceability is very important on small machines, as it's quite difficult to work inside the printer. The 1515s and the hard-to-remove panels further add to this issue…

It's a productive week on the V0 front, which is no coincidence since zruncho has been feeding me a ton of great ideas and helping me think outside the box…

It's been a while since I disassembled the V0 frame, but it's quite a challenge to check all the boxes I wanna check:…

I just wanted to summarize for you guys where the focus will be for the rest of the year. Documenting the development process will be a priority. Without the help of our Members, we wouldn't be able to do most of these things, so it's crucial to provide as valuable and fun behind-the-scenes experience as possible…

Today, I felt like unbuilding the cross-gantry printer to make the necessary frame changes for the new design. The M2 hardware removal felt satisfying, knowing they won't be needed next time unless someone wishes to save some bucks by keeping the Z with MGN7H instead of MGN12H…

The last time I talked about how I wanted to improve the toolhead compatibility situation between the 2 platforms. But, I never showed the actual belt path to do it with only a different belt clamp and a Beacon delete…

During my Easter break, I finally received my first parts from LDO, they're mostly for the M0 build…
