Description
This upgrade will move extruder motor for bowden setup from top of the frame to the x-axis. The curvature of the tube from x-axis movement will stay consistent no matter what your z-axis height is. This will reduce the flex of ptfe tube thus making filament travel more smoother.
1 x M8 Bolt (40mm min.)
2 x M8 Nut
3 x M8 Washer
4 x M3 12mm Socket Head Cap Screw
2 x M3 20mm Socket Head Cap Screw

Please refer to provided photos for assembling process.
The extruder was placed in a SnapFit Bowden Extruder Mount Anet A8 by hachiroku. I remix it and make a base so that M8 bolt can be fit on the rear of the extruder motor.
