WOODEN PRINTER BUILD & UPGRADES

The project started as a 1 meter Cartesian Cube. But for easy transportation around the house, I had to reduce the printer width to 83 cm from 1 meter.  Printer  details can be found below ; Max tested printing speed : 150mm/s Best results as of now : 75mm/s with 550 acceleration & 0.04 junction Deviation Printer dimensions : Length : 120 cm  Width : 83 cm Height : 83 cm  Current Print Dimension : 60 × 60 × 50 cm Print Dimension upgradable : 120*83*83 cm Endstops set to : 48x * 38y * 28z cm Firmware : Marlin 2.0.6.1 upgraded to 2.0.8.2 with SKR2 Steps per unit  A4988 (100, 100, 2600, 95)  DRV8825 (200, 200, 5200, 190) Iinear Advancement K = 0.22 Baud 250000 # printing Material (All metal) [PLA, ABS, Nylon, ASA, TPU etc] # 1.75mm filament # 100k ntc b 3950 Thermistor # 12v 40w heating cartridge # E3D V6 All Metal J-Head Hotend Extruder PID Tuning 195°c Kp : 41.88  Ki : 7.41 Kd : 59.18 185°c Kp : 42.65 Ki : 7.23 Kd : 62.90 # Fat Nema extreme Extrusio...

The Background Story : From a Homemade Music Studio to 3D printer RnD


Mel started DIY projects in 2018 with a Homemade Electric Guitar to kickstart Midnight Riptide, an online POP-ROCK-EDM band started by Mel and his internet friends. With 3 singles released worldwide, Mel wanted to step up into an instrumentalist from being a lyricist and composer. As high end instruments costs a fortune, Mel wanted to find an alternative which led him to start working on a Homemade Electric Guitar called Melocaster. Collecting reclaimed wood from old house and furniture and acquiring waste wood from nearby woodmill, Mel started building the 3D printer which was named as Meloprinter, later renamed to Melxlxtreme R1 which took more than 6 months of solid research to develop and upgrade.

MEL THUNDER AMP
The research on building homemade Amps lead Mel to develop a 100 watts Monster Amp called Mel Thunder Amp. 100% Designed by Mel, including the PCB, transformers, CAB, Preamp, Amp board, speaker protection, Power supply and the Mid Range speaker itself custom designed. The amp consists of a 3 Band EQ for Clean and Distortion Channels separately switched by a toggle with a bypass. Protected by fuses on Transformers primaries and secondaries.
