Description
I upgraded my heatbed to use a silicon heater pad, and wanted to be able to easily attach/detach the heatbed and add a thermal fuse. I've used Wego221 lever nuts to make life easier.
This mod will also work for folks with the standard Creality bed- just clip the wires with enough slack to run though the lever-nuts. Note you do not need a thermal fuse for this setup.
Along with the bed mod, I'm also including my x-axis/extruder cable management mount for the CR10/CR10S, and a dual drag-chain mount point for the back right of the printer. Note that this mod does not work for bowden systems as it uses the old bracket on the x-gantry where the e-motor was mounted to security attach the drag-chain.
Note the slightly different bill of materials for the silicon heater pad vs Creality stock.
