Enlarged G2S Universal Effector

thingiverse

HEADS UP to those planning to print this design: it's best to delay printing for about a week, as I'm busy working on a new second generation design featuring numerous improvements.\nThe G2S Universal Effector is getting an upgrade - this enlarged version offers plenty of room for dual J-head extruders with attached cooling fans. With more clearance, less dis-assembly is required during configuration changes. The print cooling port has been increased in size, so up-sized ducts are included; though the original ducts still fit, they won't seal perfectly.\nYou'll need to adjust your firmware to account for the altered geometry - this spider's radius is 12mm larger than standard, and maximum Z height will decrease slightly due to diagonal rods being more vertical when centered.\nUpdate: I reinforced the spider to handle increased leverage between widely spaced diagonal rod pairs. Printing with a material having a higher melting point than PLA is highly recommended, as heat from the extruder(s) will be dissipated onto the spider.\nUpdate: A rocking adapter for this spider has been posted.
