NOTE: After installation you will need to recalibrate your e-steps and also shift your print location 4 or 5mm to it's right. You can do this by compiling a new firmware OR what I did was use Octopi's terminal function to send "M206 X-5" to shift the print area 5mm to it's right and then "M500" to save it.

As always, I'll be updating this pinned comment with FAQs and updates:
Q: How much did everything total to?
A: Part 1 totaled around $138, not including the raspberry pi.
Part 3 totaled around $250 to $300 depending on which endoscope model you choose and where you order your parts from.
Keep in mind though that if you were to add these mods to your printer it will likely cost you a lot less since a lot of these recommendations added in part 3 replace the ones from part 1.
Q: What are my Cura / support settings?
A: Details on this are explained in the Part 2 video in the Q&A section czcams.com/video/uBfMoOqCgPc/video.html
Q: What 3D modeling software do I use?
A: Fusion 360
Can you add a touch of RGB lights.
As others have already pointed out:
1) Ringing and ghosting? If the answer is a lot, ever considered remote direct drive?
2) Change the thermistor. Best upgrade possible. NTC 100K are extremely inaccurate.
3) Nylon is not easy to print, and has a really narrow field of application. That said, a conversion to higher thermal capabilities (maybe not PEEK and ULTEM) on an Ender 3 could be cool. Especially the heated enclosure.
4) CR 30?
Overall, I would say that you're getting really good at it. Keep it up!
Do you use marlin or the stock os? If you use the stock os, how did you add the bltouch without having any problems?
Was the micro swiss worth it? Just got a second Ender 3 and, I plan to Gucci it out.

My jaw dropped at that flexible phone case just printed right there, peeling that thing off, honestly incredible I’ve never seen anything like that in my life
Same! It's amazing!
Same! When I saw him do that upgrade, I was like ehhh I don’t need this one.. and then I saw him print the phone case.. and changed my mind. Now I want it in the future forsure.
Scotty you have successfully boiled my 3 years of searching, learning, printing, failing, and correcting into 3 succinct and comprehensive videos. Here I am back again to pickup some final mods to my Ender 3 pro. Got my 'stupid' silent fans installed, skr mini board, tft touch screen, buck converters...working on my rear electronics box and fine-tuning my cooling duct. Thanks again for all of your time and research!
just got an skr and oh my god the difference is insane, I was almost in shock
quick tip: when you replace a fan, like 90% of the time the sticker on the back of the motor can be peeled off to expose the wire solder points. Just de solder the wire from the old fan and the new one and then re solder the old wire to the new fan. its easier and cleaner. Also there are plenty of 3d printable extruder heads and direct drives that are probably better than what you got do to more compatibility, more customizable, and lighter in weight.
I was afraid of replacing the fans because I thought I might ruin the printer when cutting the wires thx man
Just be careful not to bridge the solder point when resoldering 👍
@@chilichongoes9577 it isnt incredibly difficult even when just cutting it I had done it as a 10 year old
This man has higher quality than most channels with 10m subs.
Keep up the great work.
16M subs: enes batur 🤢🤮
Yeah i just got my Ender 3 Pro and this is so helpful
truth
lol i thought that he had like 1 /5 mil subs but than i saw he only had 200k witch astounds me because of the quality content (sorry for the bad english btw)
Dude, the Transitions, the Music... This shit is awsome. :O
At 40k subs he is a great youtuber and he has only uploaded like 6 videos he is really cool!! 😳😳😳😀😀😀😀
AND ITS TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME i hope im not the only one that heard that in the song
Yeah that music would be great for parties, If only I could get my band to learn a couple of these tunes, lol :)
World's quietest 3D printer ever.
I hope that's a joke🤣
@Ethan Lu ender 3 silenced is better
Enclosers done right can lower the sound to negligible levels. The foam works particularly well on 3D printers assuming that it's air tight with negative pressure. That seal on its own does a significant amount of sound dampening.
The fans typically make mid to high frequency sounds which is what foam excels at. Stepper motors are quiet but the movement of metal on metal is slightly audible. It's probably because metal moving on metal is sometimes a very low frequency sound.
The connectors for the “housing and crimping set” are called Dupont Connectors and Crimpers 👍
That is a completely different printer.
Prusa level printer :)
@@sidewinded1 more expensive than a prusa
@@lucaskp16 Sadly this is true. People are always like “Prusa is overpriced and overcharges” but when you look at the specs you are getting a Prusa for cheaper with the same specs, better quality and customer support...
@@lucaskp16 Yes, and no, let me explain, u get the prusa, and yeah is neat out of the box, but with the ender 3, or the v2, you get a "decent" printer that you put to work, get some cash, upgrade it, etc
Is there anything left of the original printer??

Scott, thank you so much for your 3 videos on upgrading the Ender Pro. Because of the time and work you used to make theses videos I have decided to purchase a Ender Pro and modify it to my liking. You are doing great service to the community and, again, thank you.
Klipper was a huge game changer. Really took things to a whole new level. I use Mainsail and that tends to work really well. This helped cut down on blobs and overall inconsistencies in the print. Paired with the dual gear and insulation under the bed (and bed mounts instead of springs) made the prints amazing. It has been a huge headache and only recently have I even gotten back to using it. But the learning experience was well worth it for the quality (and speed) I've gotten out of such a machine.
I want to buy the official Creality x Scott Yu-Jan Ender 3.5 Pro...
Where is the link to purchase?
Ngl I would buy something like that
I wish you would do tutorials. I'm scared to do the electrical work without step by step, and I think you would make great tutorials.
Actually that would be a good idea as electrical work seems to be pretty important and if people choose to eventually build their own printer (something like a Voron) it would make it more accessible. Not sure how it would work with your snappy engaging editing style. Love these videos and the creative urge they give me. I think Creality must have made quite a few sales off this series.
100% Agree, I'll be receiving mine soon! and I'm so motivated even more now to mod it but when I ended up in the electrical work part I immediately said ''nope skip this mod'', It's not that I wouldn't try but the fear of bricking the printer or making it worst just puts me off, especially since I'm a total beginner with modding this type of stuff
I agree, because I'm gonna do an Ender 3 Max video about mods too.
Re watching this about a year later when I know more about 3D printing I find it so very fascinating the way you can tell how Scott has learned so much from this experience! What a great project based experience!
I really love the idea of quiet fans, cheers
Z-Axis already carries the weight of the extruder and its stepper motor. The key difference is now the X-Axis has that additional weight where previously the bowden hotend was a lot lighter. Increased weight on the X-Axis may introduce ringing when you're making fast X moves.
I think the stepper motor drivers on the new board he added could potentially help. Also, why is prusa able to print faster with less ringing for direct drive?
@@sidewinded1 Its because prusa uses lightweight stepper motors and the x carrige itself is extruder. So its just a little more heavy than a regular bowden setup.
@@beratbaki1681 Thanks for the explanation, although wouldnt it still be slower than a bowden because there is still more weight? Thank you, coming from a prusa owner lol
@@sidewinded1 Definetly bowden is faster than prusa. But the direct drive has more benefits I think. I personally do not care about printing faster but printing acurratly. Thats because I upgraded my Cr-10 with a bmg dual drive and a normal sized nema 17.
@@beratbaki1681 Yeah. I personally enjoy the hassle-free ness of direct drive. It gives me a lot more versatility, something extremely useful for multiple plastics
Please make more videos! Absolutely love the quality in editing and your suggestions/builds are extremely interesting and informative. Give it a year and this could easily snowball into more than a full-time career. You have a great voice and setup for YT.
The quality of your videos is insane. I can only imagine the effort you put in these, the flow, the camera angles and the set are just amazing.
I love your energy on your videos. Just ordered the replacement fan for the power supply. Thanks.
Dang bro you killed it with this one. I can tell your video editing skills have increased significantly like Goku reaching Super Saiyan levels.
haha thank you so much Hector. i'm definitely trying to slowly up my video production quality with each video so i appreciate that you noticed. cheers!
@@ScottYuJan i didn't think they could get better but daym you are good at it
@@ScottYuJan hey I can’t get the Fanta to work. I connect yellow to red and black to blue and it never kicks on.
@@NightBlade58 for the PSU power supply fan?
@@ScottYuJan for the upgraded cooling fan that goes into the remix part that I printed. I am essentially copying your build.
Instead of straight swapping out the PSU fan, could you print a new PSU shroud with mounting holes for an 80 or even 92mm fan? A bigger fan will spin slower for even quiter operation. ATX PSUs use the biggest fan possible for this reason. Probs negligible difference, but it just seems like there is plenty of space left for it.
Incredible video. Thank you so much!
Great job. Classic black and white design. Get a lot of inspiration. Thanks for sharing.
First time viewing one of your videos. Highly informative, concise, and with links to all the items - you're a goddamn national treasure, bud. Thanks
Top notch editing, Scott! Thanks for the great tips!
Amazing work!
Awesome informative video! Thank you!
For anyone considering switching to direct drive for an Ender 3, z-additions are not necessary as the motor doesn't touch the top rail, you can simply run the cables from one side of the printer rather than vertically.
I recommend adding back the Teflon housing for the filament to avoid yanking on the spool when the extruder moves to the edges. this will introduce filament tension during extrusion and that leads to imperfection in the prints
Hmm, he has ball bearings for the spool. I have the same setup with the filament going in the top. My biggest issue is the filament path of the microswiss. At times it is hard to get it fed right. I straighten it beforehand and you get better at it over time.
Your original upgrades video helped so much when I first got my printer, much appreciated!
Thanks Scott for the videos. I am going to do some more custom upgrades to my Ender 3X that you showed on your videos. I did the all metal dual gear extruder as one of my first upgrades. Workers great. One upgrade I did was I purchased 600mm dual channel extrusion to extend my build height, a second Z axis stepper motor kit ( included dual Z-axis motor controll cable) and two 600mm lead screws for the extended height.
Your edits are so amazing
Hey, wanted to say thank you. Your series inspired me to get into 3D printing, and I'm about 75% of the way though most of the mods you've done, with a couple of extra ones along the way. I'd definitely recommend the BigTreeTech touch screen, it's excellent, and even with octoprint, still use it all the time.
Also, when is the next vid coming? - you promised! (you didn't, but that's how I heard it! ;) )
I just got mine but haven't messed with it. What do you think one of the First MODSs I should do ?...I bought a (self ?) Leveling thing and a glass bed
@@MOE13576 in honesty I eventually just built a Voron 2.4.r2.
Other than octopi, I'm not sure most of them made the printer much better. Some made my print quality worse but that was likely just my novice abilities at the time. Now I built the Voron, the e3 went in the loft.
Definitely the touch screen and octopi. Maybe handles too.
@@ZeoniaSD alright, thanks
Solid work. Appreciate the interesting videos.
Came across your Ender 3 Pro Upgrades & Mods video Part 1 and immediately followed up with Part 2 and Part 3. Your videos are a pleasure to watch!
Have you seen the transparent polycarbonate wheels? They say they are more resistant, have better glide and will also combine perfectly with the other mods, excellent work
I’m pretty sure I watched the first video and bought and Ender 5 plus. I just got around to getting an ender 3V2
Great stuff! Thanks Scott.
just amazing. thank you so much bro
Just for the fact that you mentioned how the can of air isn't great for the environment, you immediately get an upvote, thanks for bein considerate.
sure but what about all the microplastic entering the environment now when using a printer ?
@@batmandalorian5504 I agree with your point, that's why I try to keep my waste to a minimum and I try to only print in PLA. I'm planning on finding a place that does industrial composting of PLA to give my scraps to.
Get this man to 1 mil
Nice to see, well done!
Insane video !!! Love it 😍. Rhythm, speed, fantastic editing… and so many great ideas… you rock man !!!!
Yooo, that white and black look is so clean! Imma have to steal that idea :D
Guys if you still struggle with glass bed adhesion just wash it under warm water with some soap. Nothing will degrease the surface like this simple solution now it's hard for me to release the prints from my bed.
Indeed. Use your clean hand to wash the surface with a drop of dish soap and hot water. Dry with paper towel and don't touch it. The next 5 prints will stick fast. I normally use the scraper to move any dust aside between prints.
Great video, this will help me a lot when I change printers. Thankyou!
Your videos are so enjoyable to watch.
The amount of effort that goes into a video like this deserves a lot more love. Your insane man and I'm looking forward to future videos! Ill definitely be doing every one of these upgrades once I get this thing!

Ender 3 is on sale at Newegg for $165 today only
Link?
@@tobiastho9639 I can’t seem to find it but it is usually only around 180+ shipping on crealitys website anyway
That's honestly not a good deal. They're very often $155-165 in various places. IMO you're shooting yourself in the foot with the Ender 3. The Ender 3 Pro has a quality Meanwell PSU for about $40 more, which is the price of the PSU by itself, plus it has a few other upgrades to boot. Even THEN you're shooting yourself in the foot usually because the Ender V2 usually you can find for $240-260, and it adds a silent stepper motor mainboard ($30-40 upgrade usually), belt tensioners, touch screen control ($30ish upgrade), and other upgrades. Almost anyone would appreciate at the very least a PSU that won't burn your house down that you can trust, your printer not sounding like it's trying to annoy you using a voice box (EEEEEEEEEEEYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!). Those two things alone make the Ender v2 worth the extra money for most people.
@@heroflying Wholeheartedly agree with 99% of your points, but the Ender v2 doesn't have touchscreen :(. Still uses the turn knob
@@peterahn8332 I have a pro. Thanks, didn't realize it wasn't a touchscreen.

Scott did you also have Problems with just one Z-Axis-Motor? Now I upgraded to dual Z as my whole x Axis had some wobble and the first few layers got crazy bad. Dual Z eliminated this problem :)
