Upgrade Creality Ender 3 with a Main Board, Bed Leveler, and Touch Controls
Jamie, over at @JamiesHackShack joins @retroCombs as they try to upgrade Steven's Creality Ender 3 3D printer with some newer tech, a CR Touch Auto Leveling Kit (https://amzn.to/3TnWorf) and a Creality Color Touchscreen with new controller board (https://amzn.to/3VOYGB9). They'll give the upgrades a try during a livestream conducted at their local makerspace, The Propeller (https://members.columbuspropeller.com), in Columbus, Indiana. If they run into issues, the makerspace should have the tools and expertise they need. Should be interesting as these two YouTube giants, errr, newbies, try to work this out together.
