Needed to print some very special 380mm tall items, so decided to modify my ender 2 to print very tall prints. it works surprisingly well, and the bad resonance only kicks in at about 390mm!

I always print slow with it. The tiny heated bed uses so little power, maybe only 5p per hour to run, Vs my rating which was costing me 20-30p per hour :|
what is 5p?
British Pence. 5p = £0.05
Maybe go with independent heater zones on the ratrig? Idk if the cost of multiple new heaters and supporting hardware would be worth it tho
