Upgrading my Tevo Tornado 3D Printer!

Upgrading my Tevo Tornado 3D Printer!

I've had it a year and have not used it a lot. I ran into issues with my Tevo Tornado and was disappointed by the noisy control box and quality of the prints it was producing. I was getting a lot of Salmon Skin effect and had to do some tuning to solve some problems with layer shift on the Y axis. Then, the glass bed broke on me, so it has sat unused for several months. Now it's time to give it a major overhaul and get it printing again!

In this video I am going over what I have replaced in the electronics box, what's worked and what hasn't...and what's next!

Here's some useful links!
