Octoprint is an increasingly popular wireless 3D printer host. Usually running on a Raspberry Pi, Octoprint connects via USB to your printer, and then is controlled by any device on your network through a web browser. You can even configure remote access from anywhere in the world.
Octolapse is a free Octoprint plugin that makes incredible 3D printing time lapses by moving the printhead and taking a specifically timed photo.
In this video I show you how easy it is to setup up Octoprint, and how it is easy to get going with Octolapse but harder to master. Comparisons are made between the Raspberry Pi 3 model B and Pi zero W for suitability (links to purchase below). Test printers for this video were the Cocoon Create Touch (Wanhao Duplicator i3 clone) and Creality Ender 3.
I will return with a follow up on how to make the ultimate Octolapses, as well as more in depth testing of the cheaper Pi zero W. Stay tuned..
