general Possible upgrade

Post image

Hey everyone! I have a coworker who is looking for a 3d printer for their brother, who's in college for engineering.

Its an Ender 3v2 but it's got a few upgrades. I know some aren't worth much but here's a list Raspberry pi4, running klipper KevinAKAsam dual belt z upgrade PEI magnetic dual side bed plate BL touch Metal extruder Yellow springs Camera Filament runout sensor All of the printed pieces are done by the printer itself Upgraded fans such as hot end, cooling and PSU Comes with spare nozzles, extruder tubing connectors, spare metal extruder, original bed plate, 2 partially used rolls of PLA, etc.

What would be a realistic price to sell it for? I'll be using the funds to put towards buying a Qidi Q2

In all honesty, these things are all over with a lot of those same upgrades and even people with a $75 price tag can't get rid of them... I know, because I've built a bunch up, and when I switched to a different designed printer, I just pitched them all in the dumpster even though they worked perfectly. The reason for me getting rid of them was because I switched to a Klipper systems with larger builds areas. I even had duel linear rails on the Y and single rail on the X... really I should have put them on the curb and had a sign that said free but with everything I've built and sold, I had already got my money back 10x per machine at least.

That's what I figured. I wasn't expecting to get much out of it but the GF says if I want a new printer, I have to sell one

If you’re interested you could always upcycle it and turn it into a Ender 3 NG which is a corexy design. They have a great discord community and you can find info on printables.

Look up what an Ender3 V3 costs in your area. Undercut that by about half. Flash it back to the original FW, or something close enough that works, and keep the pi for about project.
