Multi-Extrusion system for Wanhao / Monoprice / Balco i3 plus 3D Printer

thingiverse

These parts are used to make Wanhao / Monoprice / Balco i3 plus 3D printers work with dual extrusion. The main purpose of the Silence3D board is to make your printer quiet. When the Silence3D board is used, you have two unused stepper motor drivers. So in total, you can use three extruders. For now, I made a system with only two extruders. Maybe in the future, there will be three of them. You need these parts to make it work: Silence3D * 1x Silence3D board with fans https://silence3d.com/product/mega-silent-pack-for-wanhao-i3-plus/ Or if you don't need Noctua fans: * 1x Silence3D board https://silence3d.com/product/silent-pack-for-wanhao-i3-plus/ * 1x Set of screws and nuts for two-color printing https://silence3d.com/product/set-of-screws-and-nuts-for-two-color-printing/ Banggood * 1x BMG extruder with motor https://www.banggood.com/custlink/DmmYyqFNvf * 1x BMG extruder https://www.banggood.com/custlink/DDDYh28Dns * 1 meter PTFE tube https://www.banggood.com/custlink/KGvhyk8vQM Aliexpress * 1x 2 In 1 Out Hotend https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000434524107.html?spm=2114.12010612.8148356.18.5c2b2054JQHXdt If you want to get a $3 discount, create a new Aliexpress account with this link: https://a.aliexpress.com/_dWHgSM2 If the link doesn't work, contact me.
