Only changes I’ve made
Proceeds to list at least half of the essential parts of their 3D printer.
Comment on do you think it's worth to update an old CR-10s?

I still rock my cr-10 v1 only changes I’ve made, added cr touch, added second z lead screw, added creality direct drive extruder, added a pi with octoprint, replaced all fans with noctuas including the control box, added dampeners on all steppers and replaced the original glass plate for a textured glass plate
Thing still prints like a dream, and more accurately than the 30k$ printer at my work lol
So I would say yeah upgrade it, it’s worth it

I would consider them essential upgrades rather than essential parts, since they are competely optional and aren’t required to make the printer functional!
There are endless amounts of upgrades for printers this is barely touching the surface!

Sure, but the way you said it sounded like “I barely made an changes” while you in fact did ;)

Yeah my CR-10v2 is still solid, and that’s basically a rebranded CR-10s. I’ve put in an original V6, added a bltouch and a pi for octoprint and that’s treated me pretty well so far.
