Links Into Hangprinter v3 Build Video
On Dec 13-15, 2017, tobben and Tom made a live stream in 4 parts on Youtube, where they built and debugged a Hangprinter v3. The videos are very long, so this wiki page is created as a "table of contents". Help out and fill in if you watch the videos: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4.
Part 1
1m38s | Start |

1h33m55s | Close-up of D-lines tied into D-spool. |
1h35m45s | Tom explains braided/fused line. |
1h37m35s | Keep the three D-lines separate while reeling onto spool. |
1h39m21s | Pro tip: Mark your spools with "A", "B", "C", and "D". |
1h45m38s | Counter sinking hole for M8 bolt the quick and dirty way. |
1h47m30s | Inserting 608 bearings again. |
1h49m15s | Pro tip: Sandwich spacer tightly between 608 bearings. |
1h53m15s | Starting on the ribbon cable. |
1h54m40s | Pro tip: Thread a loop in from the top of D-linerollers first to catch the single line from below. |
1h58m13s | D-linerollers, D-spool, and D-lines limit where we can place everything else on the ceiling plate. |
2h16s | Trying to plan layout of ceiling unit. Stepper cables are short. |
2h3m51s | More on the ribbon cable. |
2h7m21s | Giving the ceiling plate directions their names. |
2h8m3s | Naming convention: B/C are the symmetric/mirrored sides of the mover. A is the third side. |
2h8m43s | What to keep in mind for ceiling plate layout. |
2h17m3s | Soldering ribbon cable's mover end. |
2h37m25s | Assembling ABC spools of ceiling unit. |
2h42m7s | Secure spool with nyloc nut or by tightening two M8 nuts against each other. |
2h45m25s | Pro tip: Align with bolt while inserting bearing-spacer-bearing in gear sandwiches. |
2h54m11s | Making lines for the A, B, and C spools. |
2h56m10s | Mounting the ribbon cable on the extruder holder. |
2h57m40s | Note down on the spool how long the lines are, so you can feed that into firmware later. |
3h6m15s | The ABC spools get two 7.5 m lines each. |
3h7m13s | Assembling ABC linerollers. |
3h12m46s | ABC lines entangle into spaghetti monster on the floor. |
3h21m12s | It's much faster to tie in lines before you attach the spool to the gear and the gear to the plate. |

3h29m16s | Mounting ABC linerollers. |
3h35m20s | Attaching steppers to motor brackets. |
