Initial Considerations
- This mounting system is currently untested - Work in Progress.
- Once trialled additional Assembly pictures will be uploaded.
- The standard IndieLC currently only has one Extruder on the X-Axis, an additional Extruder will be required to be attached to the Z-Axis (further information to follow).
- An External Stepper Driver Board will be required to be attached to the Minitronics for Dual Extrusion. Or alternative electronics fitted.
Tools Needed
- All the tools in the Cyclops/Chimera assembly steps.
- 2.5mm Hex Drive/Wrench for M3 fixings.
- 3mm Hex Drive/Wrench for Low Profile M5 Screws.
- 8mm Combination Spanner.
Things to Print
- Replacement X-Carriage.
Things to Buy
- Plenty of filament to play with :)
