UPDATE: 01/2020 New Cooler for E3D V6 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3204918 Release: 14.06.2018 Hey Everyone, I was fed up with all the playing around between different parts, so I completely upgraded my printer to a linear guide system. Now nothing wobbles anymore and precision has increased dramatically. I looked into the MGN12 conversion, but it seemed too pricey and complicated, so I developed and implemented my own solution. Additionally, the two belt guides are now almost parallel to the cart guide, eliminating the need for extra adapters or brackets. For E3D V6 owners, I created a matching holder that fits the new cart. The cart has the same dimensions as the original, making all holders compatible with it. My E3D V6 Clone has a 12mm diameter on its holder. I also designed a suitable cooler for the original extruder, available here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2706922 Printing results are significantly better, and the printer can now handle higher speeds. You'll need the following parts for the conversion: 4x 450mm x 10mm linear shafts 8x LM10UU linear bearings For the belt mount, you'll need a 40mm M4 and 50mm M5 each. Depending on how you lead the belts, use the longer one at the front and the shorter one at the back. The rest of the parts can be reused from your printer. Please contact me for any changes or suggestions and upload your make. Note: Please adjust the print settings as I still need to calibrate the parts. To get the zero point correct again, modify the configuration.h file with these adjustments: #define X_MIN_POS -2 #define Y_MIN_POS -10 If you're using Z stabilization, remove the inner curve for now, or the slides will hang on both sides.
