Prusa I3/Anet A8 Chimera Clone Carriage with Optional BLTouch

thingiverse

I took inspiration from some designs on thingiverse and created my own little version. The carriage is yet to be fully built and tested but I am trying to work on it on the side as fast as possible :) There is an adapter piece which is designed to push the hotend forward and allow it to be repositioned easily with a new part. This part can also be printed in ABS or PETG for better heat resistance. The BLtouch mount should work for most people, you may need to add something as a spacer if it isn't quite right once you adjust your nozzles. I've been printing and it has mostly been okay, my BLTouch seems to have repeatability issues which I don't believe are related to the mount. Old Update Log (Issues fixed): Update 31/01/2020: The holes were a bit tight and it seems my model wasn't exporting with the right hole sizes, updated it with the assembly stl and a specific 0.4mm off set version :) Also added .stp files for any remixes or other modifications. I do plan on adding a BL touch but if someone beats me to it feel free :P Update 15/01/2020: Did my first test print and have uploaded V2 with some changes made to thicknesses. The rest of the parts seemed to fit, there were some issues with the fan interface and the top face of the duct being too thin. I have also made some minor changes to the carriage adaptor. A strip added to strengthen the belt posts in case they are too weak.
