WEEDO X 40 WIPE BRUSH BRACKET MODDED. I FOUND THE STOCK WIPE BRUSH TO BE LOCATED TO CLOSE TO THE END STOPS. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS WAS WHEN THE EXTRUDERS PURGED, THE FILAMENT WOULD LAND ON THE BRUSH OR BRACKET AND POTENTIALLY GET CAUGHT UP AND DRAGGED ON TO THE PRINT BED OR PRINTING PART. THE MODEL I CREATED HERE MOVES THE BRUSHES CLOSER TO THE CENTRE OF THE BED BY ABOUT 3-4MM, SO NOW THE PURGE LANDS IN THE BINS AND THE NOZZLE WIPES CLEAN. PRINT WITH HOLES TO THE BED, NO SUPPORTS. PRINT 2 PARTS WHERE ONE IS IN MIRROR MODE. I SUGGEST USING A STRONG HIGH TEMP FILAMENT. I USED 3DXTECH CF NYLON GEN3. THE EXTRUDER MOVES ACROSS THE BRUSH WITH A BIT OF FORCE SO THE PART NEEDS TO BE STRONG. I ORIGINALLY USED PLA BUT IT STARTED TO SAG OVER TIME. THE STOCK BOLTS CAN BE USED TO FIT THIS THE STOCK BRUSHES AND SMALL WIPE PARTS FIT THIS MODEL.
