Comment on Are Vorons still the best DIY printers in 2026?
IMALlama@lemmy.world 4 days agoApologies for the delayed reply, it’s been a week.
Vorons are capable because the base design is pretty good out of the box and because the design is open source. As other companies come up with cool ideas you’ll usually see a mod to adopt them to a Voron. It wouldn’t surprise me if this idea is adopted. Until very recently, things like hot ends were commodity parts made by third parties and not the printer OEMs. This made part availability fairly guaranteed and also feels more open. The good news is that it looks like Bambu will sell these parts at some point.
As for existing options in Voron land, there three popular mods out there for multi-toolhead: StealthChanger, TapChanger, and Mad Max.

Thanks for the reply! I hope something similar gets developed. As much as I like multi-toolhead solutions, the nozzle-changer seems so much more compact.
