Howdy y’all, much like the title says, I’m looking to build a Hypercube. I have what was once upon a time an Ender 3 V1 that I’ve rebuilt with an Ender Extender kit. I’m not happy with the aggressive ghosting I get from the 400x400 bed so I wanted to cannibalize the electronics and build the frame from scratch. I was also planning on keeping the bed since it’s got a stick on heater and thermistor that’ll work well with the new setup. Hotend too, probably, since it’s an all metal Micro Swiss.
Any gotchas to look out for? I know belt tension is a biggie once I get it together, but any gotchas to look out for in the build process?
I’m not too nervous about throwing together a custom firmware for this, it’s not my first custom firmware and I’m a software guy by trade so it’s pretty straightforward for me.

Sounds like you’ll just end up with an ender 6. Maybe you can use that firmware and parts list and build guide?
