4. Load Cell based Z Offset on Hotbed (Can be based on PRtouch on Ender 3v3 se/ke )

2024 updates

• BTT eddy (recommended to buy a flat usb 3 angle connector because the mcu enclosure box doesn't leave much room left for connecting anything on the USB ports)
• PEZ (Polyurea) build plate
• ceramic hotend
• custom nozzle wiper mount
• conditional turn off of filament sensor at layer 0-2 and turn on at layer 3
• custom cable organizer
