No Kits, Just CNC – What I Learned Building My 3D Printer (Final Assembly, Klipper config, Testing)

Final part of my series on building a custom CoreXY 3D printer using my hobby CNC. All 3D files and the full Klipper configuration are available here: https://github.com/LukasOtis/CoreXY Curious about the setup of the control board? I made a dedicated video guide that has already saved me a few times: https://youtu.be/bmgJjOtXhtQ ⸻ About me: Hi, I’m Lukas — engineer, scientist, and tinkerer at heart. I’m trying to spend more time in the shop and document my builds, working on tools, parts, and learning new things along the way. ⸻ Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 1:15 Building up the structure 2:56 Machining the Z-axis movement assembly 5:55 Assembling the Z-axis 9:06 Heated bed assembly 11:50 All components on the printer 13:14 Electronics 16:42 First power-up 17:20 Configuration and Klipper setup 19:56 First test print 21:31 Finished setup and printer 23:04 Outro
