@dougbailey stop overpaying for half a kg , priline carbon fiber polycarbonate will make you hate nylonx.
But also 265 is a little hot? Ive always been at 255
@thwclw Thanks I went for the visuals too right now its I think about 4 kg of HIPS about 20 608 bearings and almost 100 nuts and bolts. if you Want your own all the files are here

you wont print it on a pulse though. This one needs a 300x300 bed or larger as the big ring holder are 286mm end to end. I used HIPS cause I pick it up for less than $10/kg and so its less of a problem if you have to reprint something cause it doesnt fit then if you use Nylon
Now this is one you might be able to print on a pulse
The Holder is ABS the gears and Rim Nylon 910 and the tire TPU.
All was printed on a Chiron
Here's a study claiming effective EMI shielding with "Graphene" filled filaments - I didn't delve into it, just stumbled across it and then saw your post:

@thwclw Thanks Rn working on making the electronics It will get a current controlled DUI motor driver - actually 3 controlled by and arduino. We will see how much this thing will be able to put out input will be 3x 4 in/lb at 4100 rpm
There is not a feature for that yet, but the next update will always to a retraction (and z lift if available) when traveling over top layers. This can dramatically improve top layers.
@bni I would do 2 things
1.) Make an enclosure for the Ender 5 this is the first of a series of videos on that

2.) 240 is going to be too low for nylon so I would upgrade to an all metal hotend - He covers that too in the parts following the one mentioned above.
ABS ASA I print on the chiron with ultrabase (coated glass) at 105 C bed and 260 nozzle with enclosure and Nylon too at 260-280 nozzle and 80-90 bed - again with enclosure. And I run the materials well dried directly from my print dry (converted food dehydrator)
MatterControl PRO has a Gear generator now. You can specify height, tooth count, pitch, ID, pressure angle, and clearances. You can also create a rack.
