I want to upgrade all my 3D printers to the latest Marlin (Version 1.1.8 as of May 2018) so I can enable safety checks like thermal run away, broken sensor etc
I also want to add additional features like manual/auto mesh bed leveling, Trinamics Drivers, sensor-less limits etc but I dont want to mess with older versions of Marlin to do that.

The first video will review what I want to do, what boards I have to upgrade and what other options I may have. In part two I will go through the Configuration.h file (Marlin basic configuration file) to see what parameters I should keep, what they do (Most of the important ones anyway and capture the configuration for each of my 3D printer control boards.

All 3 of my printers came from GearBest for review, some of the upgrade parts I bought myself, either way I will provide links to all parts used including the printers themselves.
