RE: More upgrades?

Hi Robert, the noise in the stepper motors primarily comes from the stepper motor drivers. 

I put an einsy board on my Mk2 hardware, and a 24 volt power supply, BUT... I used a Mk52 24 volt heatbed and had to modify the mountings because the Mk2 and Mk3 Y platforms are different... 
and I used different Z motor top and bottom brackets to improve Z height...

Thanks for your answer!
It seems like one way to go, but i just bought a mk2.5s kit and installed it. It feels like a waste to buy another heatbed 🙁
Maybe i`ll just use the printer and buy a mini as sidekick...

Hi Robert, 

Some folk have kept the Rambo, and added more modern stepper drivers...  
Some folk have changed to Big Tree Tech BTT 32 bit controllers...  there is one with the same form factor as the rambo. 

Hopefully they will come forward and introduce themselves. 

regards Joan
