You asked for it so here it is!!!

I'm going a little crazy here so here goes:
These gorgeous custom LDO bear extrusions with the anodized black hardware. Should be a gorgeous frame for this printer.
Einsy Retro with my special blend custom firmware. It's time to hone those firmware skills and this printer will be the one to do it for.
3Dxtech CF PETG for all the printed parts printed with 4 perimeters and 40% gyroid infill. Why 3dxtech and not Atomic?? Just the color. I liked the dark grey working with the lighter grey of the frame and the black hardware. Basically a sexy greyscale printer.
Hotend:
E3DV6 heatsink with MK3 heatbreak, copper heatblock, and Slice Vanadium nozzle. The Slice 50W heater cartridge and very possibly the Slice Thermistor or e3d. I haven't made up my mind since it would involve a custom heat table but I'll do more research.
Motors:
LDO 0.9 degree motors on the X and Y axes with a custom LDO 1.8 degree extruder motor. I will balance the steps by setting the microstepping to 1/8 on the X and Y axes so the esteps stays 100. The reason is the smoother motion.
Fans:
Going full 24V on the extruder and heatsink fans which is the bonus of the fancy Einsy Retro board. No more 5V fans. π
Bearings:
Vesconite bearings on the X and Y axes and THK bearings on the Z. It's going to be a smooth operator. I'm really digging the Vesconite bearings.
Other random things:
LL-2GT RF belts, LDO pulleys and Idlers, black display screen, some superlube multipurpose grease, and lots of screws and bolts.
I think that's about all the fanciness that will go into this printer. I will be live streaming the build and will try and get all the wiring done for it beforehand since it's going to be boring to watch
So stay tuned for the Livestream and let's get this sucker running!
