This reduces the moving mass significantly, as the entire X-gantry moves in the Y direction. The use of 8mm steel rods would be twice as heavy. Since then, I've upgraded to Carbon Fiber tubes, which is one-eighth the weight of 8mm steel rods. Marlin 2.0.1 Configuration.h and my custom firmware.bin files are attached for your reference. Bill of Materials (BOM): Frame: T-Slot 2020 (Slot/Type 6) Aluminum Extrusion Profiles for a print bed area of X200 x Y200 x Z155: * Buy from Banggood - Silver, Black * Buy from Amazon Required Components: * 4 x 340mm (X) * 4 x 303mm (Y) * 4 x 350mm (Z) * 2 x 285mm (Bed) * 1 x 135mm (Bed) Fixings: * 60 x M5 x 8mm button head screws * 60 x M5 x 10mm button head screws * 2 x 100pcs T-Slot M5 hammer nuts * 3 x 10pcs Aluminum Corner Brackets CoreXY + Z + Bowden Components: * 2 x 8mmx300mm Hardened Steel smooth rod (choose 300mm length) for Y axis * 2 x 12mmx400mm Hardened Steel smooth rod (choose 400mm length) for Z axis * 1 x Inductive Proximity Sensor - PNP * 1 x Genuine E3Dv6 or Clone (1.75mm long) with optional Block & Sock v6 Upgrade Print Settings: * 3 Perimeters * 3 top/bottom layers * 0.2mm layer height (or better) * 50% infill * No support required Print 1 of everything except the following parts: * 2 x Z_Carriage_v1.1 * 4 x Z_Carriage_Clamp_v1.1 * 4 x Z_Shaft_Clamp_v1.2 * 2 x XY_Clamp_v1.1 * 2 x XY_Joiner_v1.1 * 2 x XY_Idler * 3 x Y_Shaft_Clamp * 4 x Bed_Support_v1.1 Some useful extras: * HyperCube 3D Printer Accessory Pack * HyperCube CNC Toolheads * Various Z nut mounts for Integrated Leadscrew Motors * X-Axis 10mm Anodized Aluminum alternatives Notes: * Bed_Support_v1.1 is required for the revised bed configuration (build log video #11) * Z Endstop v1.1 is required for the revised bed configuration. * Z_Motor v1.1 and Z_Shaft_Clamp v1.1 are required for bottom-mounted motors * Fan_Duct v1.1 provides extra clearance for E3D silicone socks * Fan_Duct v1.2 is designed for easier bridge printing * X-Carriage v1.1 provides additional support to the belt mount. * XY Joiner/Clamp v1.1 supports longer bearing LM8LUU and dual LM8UU bearings. Configuration.h files have been updated to Marlin 1.1-RC8. Old file versions can be found on Thingiverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2013921). E3D (Inductive) Sensor Mount v1.1 provides improved sensor mount stability. New X_Carriage & E3D_Mount & E3D_Sensor_Mount designs allow for removable tool heads! Z-axis rails have been increased to 12mm diameter, and Z-axis parts have been updated. Marlin 1.1.9 Configuration.h files are included. Bowden parts have been added to this HyperCube kit. Bowden_Motor_v1.1 is designed for easier printing (62deg overhang). Consider supporting me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Tech2C
