The project's goal is to take your beloved Ender 3 V2 to the next level by using only aluminum parts, mgn12 linear rails, Orbiter extruder and more, using Klipper firmware you will gain maximum accuracy, efficiency, and high print quality.

Note:

This is essentially the beta release of this guide. I'm sure there's a couple of things I missed. If you have problems please post them on the Facebook page or Discord. I'm not extremely active on here.

Introduction

This guide is currently a work in progress and goes through the steps to assemble the Ender 3 v2 upgrade kit. This means the guide will focus on the standard build which is a stock Ender 3 V2 and the BLV upgrade kit. Upgrades this guide covers that aren't included in the kit are:

  • SKR3 EZ
  • Raspberry Pi 4
  • BLTouch(clone)
  • Klipper firmware at Ben's request.
    • I will not be covering Marlin or any other flavors
  • CAN board

I want to make it clear that any modifications I do will be limited. Any modifications covered will be approved by Ben as an authorized alternative to the original build.

Additional Information-In Process

I wasn’t paid to write these guides. Ben asked me to do it as a favor to him. Considering all that he’s done for our community I felt it was the least I could do. To be honest even though it took about 2 months to build and document, I had a lot of fun doing it. It forced me to write guides in a manner that was easy for everyone to understand and cleanup my Github so I could share any files that were used that aren’t part of the original download. You’re not obligated but if you would like, feel free to donate.
