Editorial Analysis
Laser machine: https://goo.gl/5AsDBU\nLaser diode: https://goo.gl/HkebeW (SOLD OUT)\nLaser diode alternative: https://goo.gl/XgpiYu (NOT TESTED)\nLaser patreon: https://www.patreon.com/marcoreps\nL ... Stepper driver: http://www.watterott.com/de/SilentStepStick-TMC2130\n\nFinal wiring and software setup: https://reps.cc/?p=5\n\nThis videos is about modifications that turned the EleksMaker machine into a better performer than the already amazing 3D printer. First I 3D printed belt holders and adjustable roller mounts for the X axis to ease all movements. Then I equipped a small-dotted 405 nm laser diode, to improve on fine details. Finally I replaced the Pololu A4988 stepper drivers with Watterott TMC2130 ones. All the advantages of these Trinamic ICs will not fit in this text field.
