Hyperfrog Evolution

Hyperfrog Evolution

Description

This is a hybrid remix/adaptation to convert the structurally sound, but terribly designed Leapfrog Creatr into a Hypercube Evolution (or close enough anyway). I've modified the original Hypercube Evolution parts to fit as much of the existing hardware on the Creatr as possible. You can use the stock heated bed, but the Z endstop gets in the way of the steppers. I built a new heated bed platform out of 2020 aluminum extrusions similar to the original Hypercube Evolution design, and purchased a 310x310 heated bed. I've found that the NEMA 23 motor used on the Z axis needs too much current, so I created an adapter plate to fit a NEMA 17 motor there. There is an enclosure to fit an SKR 1.3 or MKS Gen L board to the original mounting holes. I needed to tap the holes further as they weren't threaded all the way through the bottom aluminum panel. This can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4312841 Todo: Match the holes for the Y axis rods to the center of the extrusions. This will net a few cm more travel along the X axis.
