Anet A8 & Hephestos BLTouch Mount- Simple installation!

youmagine

Mounting the ANTCLABS BLTouch to the BQ Hephestos Prusa i3 is a breeze, and users have successfully adapted this design to work on their Anet A8 and other printers as well. To install, simply attach the mount behind the blower fan - you may need to swap out the screws for longer ones. For firmware, I'm currently running Marlin RC-8, which you can download here in a convenient .zip file. Please be aware that uploading this firmware comes with some risk, so be sure to follow the setup instructions carefully, particularly page 5 of the download package. These instructions weren't written by me, but I've included them here since my original link has expired. My z offset is set at -.45, and I've added a convenient slot to the mount so you don't have to disconnect your blower fan during installation. If you'd like to modify this design further, feel free to edit it on Onshape!
