Day 1 (August 23, 2025) - Day 6 (August 28, 2025)

I decided to use my Switchwire to print the parts as it had a larger print volume.

Originally was planning to use richardjm’s Mgn9h x-rail, but after looking through Discord, the Pandora gantry was recommended. I still wanted to go extrusionless, so I did some searching and discovered zruncho’s vampire_bat on Reddit. This allowed for an extrusionless gantry while having a front facing linear rail (which was more flexible for probes apparently). I didn’t want to deal with pins as I didn’t have them and didn’t want to deal with drilling. I decided to use the Micron Pandora mount instead.

The parts weren’t the prettiest, but they seemed functional. Once I swapped from my Black eSun ABS+ to my Firefighter Red eSun ABS+, I encountered problems with clogging. I reviewed my build post for my Switchwire and realized I never adjusted my e-steps. I swapped my filament to Red eSun ABS+ and was able to get two prints out of the Switchwire, but the final print kept clogging. I noticed gaps in the parts it printed. For the final remaining parts (skirts), I decided to swap back to my V0.1. This reminded me how convenient the LCD display on my Switchwire and V0.2 was, but the V0.1 was my most reliable printer.

By the end of the 28th, I had all the parts printed (and some extras) along with the reprints using my V0.1 for any especially bad parts.
