By request, this is built around the Klemco v6 groove mount (get it on amazon)
Ducts are repurposed Apollo ducts, chopped down.
It's rudimentary, just a quick built, no cable management, besides a 2mm rod option as a cable strain.

After two fail print (was playing with very low filament flow for support, didn't work, but also means it was printing in mid air for hours), so was great motivation to get that setup.
This will mount on the chain setup, as pictured.
But the spacing of the mounting holes is the same as the extrusion (20mm), so can also mounted on the metal frame using t-nuts, for instance at the v...

Dec 4 - UPDATE
This is very experimental, so be ready to come across issues. (which we can then fix)
There are cutouts for belts, and for the X endstop.
The backplate is standard Apollo (so if you want something other than orbiter 2, get it from the main apollo zip ).
But the main body (here dedica...
Have you ever cut your finger, or splice some wire there, well I come to the rescue! (ok neither of which happened to me, but always kinda bothered me how sharp it was)
Well not much else about it, beside being a snap in place.
Print in PETG preferably (or anything that doesn't snap and break easily) , as it needs to bend tiny bit to install it, and PLA might snap in half (but feel fr...
The mount was meant for BTT E3RRF + IDEX
BTT E3RRF board has the same mounting point as any E3 board format (stock creality and all E3 iteration for BTT and other vendors , like SKR E3 v1v2v3, etc..)
if you need to bolt it down, just make some holes with the files.
Take this idea and make it for your own boards if you w...

Oct 21: added a belt mount with wider slots
-----
STEP file included
Screw length (might be some small mistake, but should mostly correct)
2x M2x12 (bottom fan screws)
2x M2x8 (top fan screws)
2x M3x6 - flat head - accessories screws included with the hotend
2x M3x25 - hotend mount
Hotend itself STEP file not included as it's under NDA, once released you can get it from Phaetus website
Also added a bunch of additional mounting point for accessories and such because why not! never know when these can come in handy.
Besides the 4 stock motor mounting screw holes, the other mounting holes are as usual meant for heat inserts M3, 4mm long, 4.6mm or 5mm OD.
As for the sensor use M3x6
To play on the safe side would avoid PLA as the ...

Just an idea, open to any suggestions.
Secure the adxl to this with M3x4 screws, place the screws and put a little pressure as you screw in until the screw grabs the plastic, then you'll be able to get it tight.
edit: added a version with threaded screw holes, should make it easier to screw them (edit:tweaked the threaded one)
And then tape down the whole thing to the bed w...
Update: installed on my machine and it works great!
(I uploaded new alignment tools as the top mounted rail model were too long for this.)
Stock Y endstop switch can stay in place (at least on ender3v2), and should activate at roughly the same Y position as stock setup.
may not work on ender3 v1 (due to the slimmer Y extrusion profile)

small update (no need to reprint if you did) - backplate_1of2.stl had mesh errors which usually the slicer can fix without issues, but fixed it anyway, and updated the step file as well

Hi all, first of all I want to thank every single one of you for supporting my work! It means a lot, and appreciate it so much!!!

I needed something asap, so it's nothing fancy, and not extensively tested.
Not sure if there is any interest for this, but decided to post it anyway.
my only requirements were that it snapped shut, easy enough to reopen and screws didn't jump compartments when closed. If full and you shake it violently upside down without holding the lid or falls it will very likely open. So if you wa...

Added STEP file for ender3/pro/v2, with two sizes, shorter one for use with longer than stock replacement belts and longer one to use the stock belt. so you can mod things to your liking. This can definitely be improved and eventually will do so. but in the meantime you can too.

I don't recommend using this with the Apollo, as the Apollo has direct mount to front mounted rail (unlike the Saturn)
For a top mounted rail the Apollo support the wambam plate.

The Basics:
Might work on other printers, not sure of their setup
The Stock extruder motor (42-40) has a bit more torque than the Y stock (42-32) so if you ever experienced Y skips this will help, otherwise not really a needed upgrade.
The stock Y mount won't work with a larger motor as it will hit the bed frame, so needed a slimmer one.
The pulley will need to be installe...

APR 25:
Those stock tension wheels can be annoyingly small (approximately 18mm diameter), so here is a larger variant that will still fit under the moving bed on a ender3v2
You can either use a M4 6mmOD 10mm long heat inserts, or extract the one from the original tension wheel with a soldering iron which has those same dimensions.
