Funbot Mods

thingiverse

Just a few modified parts for the Funbot i1. First is a chimera/cyclops mount with an mount for a 18mm probe. I chose to use the upper two mounting holes to mount to the extruder bracket, then the lower 2 I used to essentially sandwich the extruder bracket between the mount and the x-carriage. We also have a pretty straight forward Bowden style mount for e3d style hotends. I also encluded a 40mm fan mount off to the side for part cooling.(This is a work in progress, expect changes) Last is an untested tensioner I modeled up for the x-end, This mod will require 2 8mm bolts and 2 8mm nuts. The hexagon portion attaches to the x-end using your existing pulley nut/bolt. To tension simply tighten the 8mm bolts then clamp the x-end back onto your rods. This is assuming you have solid rods. If you are using the pipes you might need to make some modifications. Almost forgot about the z-carriage modified to utilize a tr8 leadscrew Edit(3/16/2016): Added a new Chimera/Cylops style mount and upper "bracket". Upper bracket includes a location to ziptie wiring, as well as a multi-purpose mount. I use mine for plotting and mounting a dial gauge to check bed level. New chimera mount has left mounting bracket for your auto level sensor, or whatever you wish to mount there, holes are spaced at 18mm to fit an IR sensor from pibot.
