Replacement cover & mount for BIGTREETECH Smart Filament Sensor

squirrelf3d post Replacement cover & mount for BIGTREETECH Smart Filament Sensor from patreon

After two fail print (was playing with very low filament flow for support, didn't work, but also means it was printing in mid air for hours), so was great motivation to get that setup.

This will mount on the chain setup, as pictured.

But the spacing of the mounting holes is the same as the extrusion (20mm), so c...

This is very experimental, so be ready to come across issues. (which we can then fix)

ADXL345 (generic) Y axis potential solution

Just an idea, open to any suggestions.

Secure the adxl to this with M3x4 screws, place the screws and put a little pressure as you screw in until the screw grabs the plastic, then you'll be able to get it tight.

Y dual linear rail mount - ender3pro/v2/Max - MGN12H

Stock Y endstop switch can stay in place (at least on ender3v2), and should activate at roughly the same Y position as stock setup.

squirrelf3d post X axis linear rail adapter plate ender3/pro/v2/max (MGN12H & MGN9H) from patreon

I don't recommend using this with the Apollo, as the Apollo has direct mount to front mounted rail (unlike the Saturn)
For a top mounted rail the Apollo support the wambam plate.

squirrelf3d post E motor (42-40) on Y axis (ender3v2, maybe pro?) STL+STEP from patreon

Might work on other printers, not sure of their setup

The Stock extruder motor (42-40) has a bit more torque than the Y stock (42-32) so if you ever experienced Y skips this will help, otherwise not really a needed upgrade.

The stock Y mount won't work with a larger motor as it will hit the bed ...
