Anet A8 upgrade – metal frame

The original frame of the Anet A8 is not very rigid, which is terrible for print speed and quality of prints. Therefore we will replace the acrylic frame with new metal frame. This means I now can literally double the print speed and get better quality. As promised here are the basic dimensions and parts you will need. Parts to print: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:340... 30x30 mm extrusions: http://jindrasykora.com/3030n http://jindrasykora.com/3030 (Amazon affiliate link) X-axis - 2X – 260 mm, 320 mm – 1x Y-axis – 2X – 405 mm Z-axis – 2x – 465 mm M6 10 mm bolt – 80x M6 15 mm bolt – 20x M6 flange nut – 100x M3 14 mm bolt 4x – bolts of this specific length are necessary for securing the Y-axis linear rods in place. You will obviously need more M3 bolts and nut, but you can take these from the original frame. All of the other parts you can print your self before you take the original printer apart. Quantity of 3D printed parts: – Z_axis_corner_bracket - 2x – Corner_bracket – 6x – Cable_Holder_3030 – Corner-coupler-flat – 2x All of the other parts can be printed just once.
