Emily the Engineer 10-Foot-Tall 3D Printer
Emily the Engineer built a functional 10-foot-tall 3D printer, or more specifically, modified her Creality Ender 3 with longer aluminum extrusions. These modifications also required her to convert the Ender to belts in Z to solve the problem of a hanging x-axis on the right side using KevinAkaSam’s belt mod.



A set of new wheels also had to be resin printed to run along the new extrusions, while the longer aluminum extensions needed longer cables than the original Ender 3 came with. After all of the mods were completed, the only thing left to do was install a firmware mod and fix the wiring. Surprisingly enough, the 10-foot-tall 3D printer was capable of printing at full height with a few struts to make things more stable.
