Pxmalion Core i3 Laser Mount

thingiverse

I just had my old pxmalion core i3 break down in a way that made printing with the extruder completely impossible. But since I now have an Ender 3, it was no big deal. Then I found a video that showed how to get these cheap laser engraver kits from banggood and I knew exactly what to do with my old printer instead of throwing it out! Unfortunately, there was no easy way to ziptie the laser to the old printer or any way to use magnetic mounts with the x-carrage on the PxCore i3, so I quickly whipped up this mount in tinkercad. This bracket will hold any 33mm square housing, 16mm barred laser onto a pxmalion core i3 printer in place of the extruder. I purchased this exact laser from banggood: https://www.banggood.com/12V-Blue-Violet-Laser-Engraving-Head-Set-For-CR-10-CR-10S-3D-Printer-p-1281920.html?p=JV140519177383201802&custlinkid=216313&cur_warehouse=CN Here's the video showing how to do this particular project.
