<p>Update Dec. 3, 2021:</p> <p>New design upload was long overdue. Almost all of the parts have received a revision. This will give you full build plate use and works extremely well!</p> <p>These are all of the printed components to mod the Ender 5 to use linear rails. I made this as minimalist as possible in order to not need to buy a lot of extra components and to avoid extra flex.</p> <p>Hardware:</p> <ul> <li>3 x 300mm Linear Rails with MGN12H Block</li> <li>6 x GT2 Idler Pulley 20 Teeth 5mm Bore</li> <li>36-ish x M3 Slide in T Nuts OR M3 Hammer Head T Nuts</li> <li>42-ish x M3x8mm Screws</li> <li>6 x M5x20mm Screws</li> <li>2 x M4x35mm Screws</li> </ul> <p>Please see my video series on this mod:</p> <p>Part 1: <a href="https://youtu.be/tf8bVFscOOM">https://youtu.be/tf8bVFscOOM</a></p> <p>Part 2: <a href="https://youtu.be/zYssU7fBEEk">https://youtu.be/zYssU7fBEEk</a></p> <p>Part 3: <a href="https://youtu.be/tO1P2wx0L1Y">https://youtu.be/tO1P2wx0L1Y</a></p> <p>Latest Update: <a href="https://youtu.be/YVEKWypxyGo">https://youtu.be/YVEKWypxyGo</a></p> <p>(Amazon Links are Affiliate Links)</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Creality</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Ender 5</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>.2mm</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>50%</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s?url=search-alias&amp;field-keywords=Any+HTPLA">Any HTPLA</a></p> </p></p></p> Category: 3D Printer Parts
