Phaetus Rapido Hotend
The printer currently uses a Phaetus Rapido for the hotend. It is the original model, not the Rapido 2, as it would have cost double the price for only a minor performance improvement. Additionally, the model purchased was the Ultra-high Flow model, which is i...
BigTreeTech Octopus Controller Board
The printer is controlled using the BTT Octopus 1.1 board. This board was chosen as it has many stepper motor outputs, allowing us to control up to 8 axis motors. The design files for the board are open source and can be found here, while the Klipper configura...
Stepper Drivers
The printer uses various stepper motor drivers. This is because the ones included with the BTT Octopus board are not powerful enough to drive the NEMA 23 motors used for the X, Y, and Z axes. NOTE: Because the printer uses a Core-XY design, only two motors are...
Voron StealthBurner Extruder + Hotend
The printer uses a Voron StealthBurner extruder, using a pre-made kit that contained all the various metal and electronic parts. The step-by-step guide to assembling the StealthBurner can be found here. StealthBurner Printed Parts List (WIP) The StealthBurn...
Klipper
Klipper is the firmware and software responsible for running the 3D printer. It is different from traditional 3D printer firmware in that it has two components: a firmware that runs on the microcontroller of the BTT Octopus board, and a software that runs on a...
Mainsail Web Interface
The Klipper software comes with no user interface of its own. Originally, it was designed to work with OctoPrint, but for our purposes a more streamlined solution is preferable. Currently, Klipper is configured to use Mainsail, a web-based user interface runni...
Raspberry Pi 4B
The printer is mainly controlled using a Raspberry Pi 4B computer running Raspberry Pi OS. On startup, the Pi should launch its own WiFi network that can be connected to with a laptop. The Pi is responsible for running Klipper and Mainsail, and is connected to...
Misc. Raspberry Pi Notes

General Parts List
Frame is made of 1.5" T-slotted aluminum extrusion from McMaster Carr, item number 47065T102.
BL-Touch
The BL-Touch is a physical bed leveling probe that the printer uses instead of the Voron's default inductive probe. Klipper Config The probe requires making some changes from the Voron configuration.cfg template, details of which can be found in the Klipper...
