Geeetech A20M - Modifications
Posted: Tue May 31, 2022 11:58 pm
Hi all,
I just picked up a used Geetech A20M - it was a good buy and couldn't resist.
Having been familiar with 3d Printing (own an Ender 3) just trying to grow my fleet per say.
Now I'm curious should I use this as is - or Persue modifying it into something better.
Some concerns of mine:
-I'm not too sure on the extruder / hot end design - doesn't look great - would rather upgrade it to something similar to the Ender 3
-It has filament detection - for both heads - I'd like to remove these with the firmware if possible - but I'm not opposed to soldering the connections for.
-Brings to my next point should I change the board?
Anyone else ever own one of these and think of something that should be upgraded ? I'm not opposed to a Frankenstein printer
