AM8MU (Guide to enlarging the AM8 style build 3D printers)

myminifactory

This is my AM8MU project, which I designed to build an AM8 style printer, but larger than the original. The design is loosely based on the AM8, but I made my own decisions about many of the components, which differ from the original. I spent a significant amount of time theorizing how to create this printer and discussed it with members of several Facebook groups, including the AM8 community. Unfortunately, no one was able to provide me with any insight or feedback on whether my theory was correct, so I had to rely on trial and error to bring the project to life. To my surprise, the printer turned out perfectly as expected, and I'm excited to share it with everyone. If you're looking to upgrade your AM8 to a larger size or build an entirely new printer based on the AM8 design, this project has everything you need. One of the best things about this project is that it can be easily scaled up to any size you desire, and I've included all the necessary parts and pictures in the files. Additionally, I've created a comprehensive guide and formula in a PDF document, which will walk you through the process step by step. The guide includes everything you need to know about upgrading your AM8 printer, including an explanation of the design and a formula for scaling it up. If you're short on time or prefer not to read the entire guide, I've placed the most important information at the beginning of the PDF document. Keep in mind that my choices may not be universally accepted, so feel free to modify them as needed to suit your preferences. I welcome any feedback, suggestions, or questions you may have, and if this project has helped you in any way, please don't hesitate to leave a comment. P.S. The crystal tower is included as an STL file for posting purposes only, but it can be printed using clear filament and lit up with LEDs for a stunning effect.
