Description
I had access to larger 8020 extrusion so I remixed the motor mounts and top Z rod holders to fit the larger extrusions.
Regular AM8 is 20mmx40mm
these parts fit the 25mmx50mm profile.
The parts such as PSU and CPU holders and corner bracketsI have printed from the original and will make work by sloting the holes as needed.
If I get more time I will finish the whole set in 25-50 format.
Importaint: Width wise some extrusions must be 5mm longer.
so parts list is
2x440mm
2x340mm
3x318mm These are longer because of the extra width of the extrusion 20mm-25mm difference.
I have completed my frame and am back making parts again.
The frame is extremely ridged and there is no detectable flex during printing.
Parts are much more accurate than when printed using the stock frame.
Y Motor mount comes in two styles. one piece and two piece. one piece might be a bit stiffer but is a pain to install. I also didn't use the bolt behind the motor. impossible to tighten.
