I&#8217;ve really enjoyed the machine, but have been bumping up against the limits of the bedsling and bedsize for a while now. There are a few areas I would like to play with that I simply can&#8217;t do. Additionally, the large format prusa XL is still delayed, and I&#8217;m tired of waiting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a bunch of encouragement from my brother I have decided to start on building a Voron 2.4r2. I have been reluctant to go this route as I&#8217;m more interested in printing than fiddling with the printer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have been going over the parts lists and am kind of shocked at the over all costs. I&#8217;ve decided to buy things as needed over the next few months. I went ahead and picked up a hardware kit for all the screws and fasteners from fabreko and a set of extrusions that are cut and drilled. I&#8217;m going to be using West3D berserker rails for all axis. Also picked up a ton of brass inserts for all the parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"382\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922612232__340F65FF-963A-4532-83A4-3F99B438A04A-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922612232__340F65FF-963A-4532-83A4-3F99B438A04A-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922612232__340F65FF-963A-4532-83A4-3F99B438A04A-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922612232__340F65FF-963A-4532-83A4-3F99B438A04A-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922612232__340F65FF-963A-4532-83A4-3F99B438A04A-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922612232__340F65FF-963A-4532-83A4-3F99B438A04A.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"384\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922865577__8B03C026-CEAC-46C1-932D-22D6EB67141E-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922865577__8B03C026-CEAC-46C1-932D-22D6EB67141E-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922865577__8B03C026-CEAC-46C1-932D-22D6EB67141E-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922865577__8B03C026-CEAC-46C1-932D-22D6EB67141E-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922865577__8B03C026-CEAC-46C1-932D-22D6EB67141E.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"385\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922880038__90285A6C-DC80-4B65-9BAF-5A85F611740E-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922880038__90285A6C-DC80-4B65-9BAF-5A85F611740E-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922880038__90285A6C-DC80-4B65-9BAF-5A85F611740E-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922880038__90285A6C-DC80-4B65-9BAF-5A85F611740E-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69922880038__90285A6C-DC80-4B65-9BAF-5A85F611740E.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"386\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69923505939__61D22AA0-3E07-4242-A32C-D1F7A463D89D-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69923505939__61D22AA0-3E07-4242-A32C-D1F7A463D89D-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69923505939__61D22AA0-3E07-4242-A32C-D1F7A463D89D-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69923505939__61D22AA0-3E07-4242-A32C-D1F7A463D89D-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69923505939__61D22AA0-3E07-4242-A32C-D1F7A463D89D-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mcbeen.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/69923505939__61D22AA0-3E07-4242-A32C-D1F7A463D89D.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For the electronics, I&#8217;m going to try out the manta mp8 from BTT along with their cm1 module since you can get an rpi anywhere.
