Tried to design a modular & minimalistic xy-Carriage for my Ultimaker. So I can play around a little bit with different setups.

Ultimaker Original + Bondtech QR Upgrade
After 4 (?!) years the Ultimaker Original deserved an update. Had to replace the feeder wheel after printing rough glow in the dark / carbon fiber filament. The replacement had to replaced… so an extruder upgrade it is. Happy Birthday!
The Bondtech QR Ultimaker 2 Kit won.
Initial condition (pretty happy after that time and countless printing hours):
Had to design a coustom mount. Because:
Ultimaker 2 Bondtech kit… / didn’t want to drill many holes (now just 1 ) / had to make clearance for the adjustables axis caps…
Mounted. View from below
„Final“ product
Bondtech stepper is rubbing against the 2.2 kg filament roll. First print was a redesign of my filament scale. Now it sits 7 mm lower and working like a charm.

Loosing my religion / Pt100
So if you ever wondered how your temp graph looks like live while the pt100 is working its way out of the hot end block:
I was lucky having the temp graph on a 2nd monitor and noticing it.
Solution: Stopping print, putting that thing back in and rethightening the screw.
Further improvement: Ultimaker is now powered via a 16A Sonoff Power Switch:
Ultimaker and Sonoff are both bound into Home Assistant.
New Automation: If printing temp drops below 175°C while status is „Printing“ cut the power.

And hopefully not needed anymore some more or less usable original spare parts from aliexpress…
Will update as the Ultimaker evolves!
3D Printed Shades holder – 3D prints 2017
As it’s winter at the moment I noticed a draft from our kitchen windows. Noticed the holding clips for the shades prevented a proper sealing.
So I tried to make a better one. 2 parts for easy printing. With my Printer I could just more or less press fit them together.

Trash Can Clips
As ther isn’t enough space under our sink we can’t put the top on our trash can. So the weight of the trash pulls the bag in….
Sounds like a job for the 3D printer.
