TL;DR- This is not a fun process. It's very confusing and frustrating. Take breaks and relax. Sometimes you may get hung up on something simple that you'll figure out after walking away for a minute. Also, instructions on this are changing constantly so there is no real one guide that will explain it perfectly and specifically for your printer. You'll have to do some looking around, especially if you're not very experienced with this kind of thing.

Though... through enough blood, sweat, and tears (and a little bit of exaggeration), Octoprint with Klipper and BLtouch is finally installed on my CR-10S... with the capability to control it anywhere in the world. I gotta say, as frustrating as this whole experience was to setup. It's well worth it.

One thing worth noting for people who have never done anything like this and this is your first time, in my experience, there is no one YouTube video that will explain to you exactly how to do this. Firmware/Software is constantly being updated and there are slight changes here and there. Or, as descriptive as these may be, they may actually miss out on something unique to your printer. However, they do get the job done, for the most part.

My process for this started with following Chris's Basement- Octoprint in 5 min. But like I said... I had to learn the hard way that some things won't work. Discovered that Win32Disk Imager didn't actually work. It would bring the Raspberry Pi to an error screen. Formatted my SD card, and restarted the process except this time with Etcher. Worked great.

Next, I ultimately followed Kevin O'Connor's Klipper installation guide with Octoprint. This is a very good guide that is constantly updated, so it should be good to follow. However, there are a few steps that may seem a bit confusing, which is why I referred to another one of Chris's video, a guide on how to install Klipper with Octoprint installed. Chris did a wonderful job following Kevin's instructions and walking you through.. however, some steps like setting up the configuration file for your specific printer (which is very vague in Kevin's guide) is also a bit rushed in Chris's explanation. Chris does mention the command to display the list of pre-built printer profiles, "LS". Just doesn't explain how to take it and insert it into the config command that Kevin says in his. It is imperative that you delete the "example" portion within the command that Kevin gives and replace it with your printer in the "LS" listing. After what seemed like forever, I was able to figure that out by following this video, where he explains exactly that. So, that's all said and done. Octoprint with Klipper is set up.

I then wanted to make my printer controllable from anywhere in the world. This was also a bit of a task if you've never done anything like it. I followed, yet again, another one of Chris's videos which explains how to do this in depth. Mind you, depending on the kind of router you have can ultimately decide how difficult doing this will be. I have Frontier and it took a bit of time because the verbiage he used wasn't parallel with what Frontier had, so it took a bit of digging into my router's settings. However, it is now set up, and I can control it anywhere!

Now, this was a lengthy portion of this post because I struggled getting through this, when I had no experience with this kind of thing, and I'm sure several others do not either. Again, some of these steps will be different than mine because every printer is unique.

Lastly, I have BLtouch physically installed and the plugin enabled on my Octoprint, but I've yet to get it configured and useable. That's my next plan of attack.

And then after that... clean up this mess and print a container for the guts of what used to be my control box! If anyone has any good STLs to accommodate for all the guts in the control box and the extra parts required for this, it would be greatly appreciated!

For everyone who's willing to read this far. I do have some questions I would love help with...

• Is there any good how-to's that explain how to connect BLtouch with Octoprint/Klipper? I did buy the Pin 27 board to avoid having to pull pins out and reposition. Besides, I still wanted my main LCD screen to work. I had trouble finding any videos that explain exactly how to install the pin 27 board.
  
  
• I dug up an old Logitech web cam so that I didn't have to buy a camera for it. However, the feed rate of my camera is very slow. And I recall there being an option to increase the FPS for the camera. But how?
  
  
• Aside from the Octoprint server you can pull up on anything with internet access (computer, phone, tablet, etc.), is there any way to get some of the Octoprint apps such as OctoRemote or OctoAndroid to include the plugins you have, like Klipper? Or do they just operate off the base format of Octoprint.
  
  
• For the Octoprint page when pulled up on your phone with the "Touch" plugin enabled, is it possible to have the webcam on the same page as your controls so that when you command your printer to move an axis you can be on the same page to watch it instead of having to pull down the menu and open "webcam"?
  
  
• Lastly, is there any way to actually turn on/turn off your printer from anywhere? I imagine your Octoprint has to be constantly on for that to work.. but is there a better way? This guy explains how to do it by buying/making a relay that can be controlled with Octoprint. But can you get something that can turn on the Octoprint and your printer from your phone?
  Found my answer
  
  Thanks for everything guys, and hope you enjoy/find this useful in some form!

Sure. I cut a couple of holes in the container and attached two old computer box fans. The inflow fan low on one side and the exhaust fan high on the other. Then I made a wooden top from 3/4" plywood to hold the light. I attached the power to one of these smart plugs to control the lights.

Look into "smart lights/outlets".

If you get something like this and plug any light into it, it can be controlled via a smartphone app.

It actually depends on what brand and model you get. As he mentioned, the essentials are lights, speakers and blind controls. Although my own version would be: Automated house lights, appliances you use (Coffeemaker, humidifier, smart oil diffuser, heater, fan, AC) which is a huge plus and maybe whole house speakers but if you don't have many speakers like Sonos or don't care for speakers you can also go for security for your house. I'm not sure you can get very good lights or so for that price range and have a hub or smart switch to go along with it so I'll recommend you things I own and find that are within your price range.

Smart plugs $30 for 4 plugs on Amazon they are very small and impressive and work with Google and Alexa along with IFTTT. Want cheaper? Try the same ones but it's one for $8 Here.

Or two sets of smart lights Here for $24. It also works with Google and Alex along with IFTTT. Most smart plugs will be used here. You can make many of your appliances "smart" with a simple plug. I, in fact, was watching this video right now about smart home gadgets by Rick Buck on YouTube. Very very informational about smart home appliances and definitely tells you a lot about smart plugs and how to use them

This is the one, I'll get home in an hour or so If your thinking about buying some I can dm you when mine is setup and let you know what I think!

It solved the problem for me? I hooked one of the spare smart-plug things to a fan.
