Anycubic i3 Mega - MK8 Extruder Mount

cults3d

I converted my Anycubic i3 Mega-S to dual extrusion, and I was originally working on a guide showing exactly how I did it (since the way I did it is different from what I've seen posted already) but.... an entire guide is a lot of work and I'm not sure I'll get around to it. Until then, I'm just going to post this stuff separately in case someone can make use of it. I bought a cheap MK8 extruder designed for a CR-10 from Amazon, and I used these pieces to mount it to the left side of my Anycubic i3 Mega-S. I've included two files to attach the motor/extruder itself, as well as some clips and a wire track that allows you to run the wires down the side of the frame and still have it look decent. See the pictures. These are the parts I used: Twotrees Stepper Motor Nema 17 Motor High Torque 1.5A (17HS4401) 42N.cm (60oz.in) 1.8 Degree Amazon link: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B08C268H2M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&th=1 Anpro MK8 Extruder Aluminum Alloy Block Bowden Extruder 1.75mm Filament for Creality 3D Ender 3,CR-7,CR-8, CR-10, CR-10S, CR-10 S4, and CR-10 S5 Amazon link (This is for a set of two, but very cheap):https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07SX19Y65/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Note that the extruder pack I bought no longer seems to be available, but if you do a search you'll see there are many companies selling what looks like exactly the same one and they're all fairly inexpensive.
