Anet A8 2017 E3d custom X-Carriage

thingiverse

I'm currently fine-tuning adjustments on my project, which is still a work in progress. My design was inspired by the Frankencarriage V2 from Thingiverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2089916), but I encountered issues with measurements for my specific model and wanted to incorporate a 40mm Fan for part cooling, so I created my own version. It appears that the 2017 Anet A8, which I purchased in January, has distinct rod distances compared to its predecessor (in my case, 54mm from rod to outer diameter). I will post the nozzle offset once I successfully mount it to my printer. Currently, there are no plans to integrate a holder for autobed leveling, but maybe someday. I also intend to incorporate some type of cable holder into the design. Print Settings Printer: Anet A8 Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 20% Notes: print on the side with support for the fan duct, supports are not 100% necessary if you can tolerate some stringing in the fan duct, otherwise print with 3mm support. Post-Printing You may want to clean up strings if you prefer to print without support. Onshape
