Type A Machines Flexion Single Extruder Upgrade

thingiverse

This set of brackets is specifically designed for mounting a Flexion extruder on a Type A Machine Plywood Series 1 printer. As I worked through the process, I developed the instructions while adding dual extruders to my printer. Initially, I focused on setting up one extruder and thoroughly testing it before moving on to the second extruder. I'm still refining the fan mounting, so that aspect remains a work in progress for now. This modification significantly impacts your printer's capabilities, requiring additional hardware and components beyond what's provided with these parts. Key benefits of this upgrade include: • Expanding your printing material options to more reliable choices • Enabling simultaneous printing with two materials However, be aware that this upgrade comes with some compromises: • It reduces the usable print area in all dimensions (length, width, and height)
