Welcome Scott!
I’ve started taking a look at the printer. It’s a super nice machine! Way
better than our other printers. I’m excited to help get it working!
Mechanically it looks like it’s in good shape. It needs updated firmware.
It has Marlin installed but the firmware is not configured for Core-XY and
the three auto bed leveling z axis steppers (very nice!) are not hooked up
to the control board. However there are cables for the steppers with it in
the box of parts and the control board has drivers and plugs for the three
other steppers.
So basically we need someone who can install the correct firmware for this
printer. The email below in the chain has info on the model of printer but
this has an additional z axis mod (which is very nice!) which will require
additional configuration. Options are marlin or klipper. I have never
configured klipper but it seems nice.
I’m doing the big push for burning man right now so I won’t be able to look
at this more till September. If someone else has any experience with
configuring 3D printer firmware it would be great for you to take this on!

We got a really nice 3D printer donation from someone

Hey, Dropped off the printer with Toby and met a few folks who were
excited,
skeptical, and questioning the printer. I figured I would share some info
on
it.
Here is the page on the upgraded Z mod I did:
https://seckit3dp.design/kit/triple-z
Here is the page for the main printer build:
https://github.com/SecKit/SK-Go_SK-Mini
Here is some info on the firmware it can run: https://www.klipper3d.org/
(I think if you do some digging, you can find examples for the kinematic
bed)
Here is the bed probe I used:
https://coex3d.com/products/bltouch-v3-1-automatic-bed-leveling-probe
The stepper motor board used is big tree tech octopus v1.0 with TMC2209
drivers
If you have any other questions let me know :)
Also,
If you guys need volunteers or anything, let me know. I’d love to help out
with really cool people like you guys.
Regards
Scott Griffitts

Hi,
My name is Scott. I've been in the middle of
upgrading a Seckit SK-GO² core-XY 3D printer. I'm
about 90% done, but have lost interest in it. The
machine has been an absolute workhorse with its
large build volume, but I think it is time for Oppy
(named after the rover) to move on to a new owner
who can utilize and attend it properly. It needs
about 3-5 hours of work to get it running, and maybe
3hrs of tuning. Worst case, it is loaded with
aluminum extrusions, hardware, stepper motors,
linear rails, and a Pi!
Let me know if I can donate the printer to your
space :)
Regards,
Scott Griffitts_______________________________________________
