Mini Space Invaders Carriage (Eustathios)

Description

This Is A Redesign Of The [Space Invaders Carriage](Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:893849) For Eustathios Printers. The Main Reason Of The Redesign Was To Make It Smaller To Increase Usable Build Volume. Here'S Some Of The Changes: * Smaller Size, Xy Travel Is About 290Mm² (Still Less Than The Original Carriage) * Self-Aligning Bushings Instead Of Graphite Bushings (They Use Up Less Space) * 40Mm Extruder Fan Instead Of A 30Mm Fan (Less Noise) * No Longer Supports Mounting A Direct Drive Bondtech Like The Previous Version, It Is Convertible Between A Bowden Configuration And A Direct Drive Configuration Using A Printrbot [Gear Head Extruder](Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:1052966). But, Instead Of Switching, I Opted For A Flying Extruder With A Short Bowden Tube (More About That Setup In [This Post](Http://Thrinter.Com/Cartesian-Flying-Extruder/)). The Hotend Is Mounted Quite A Bit Higher Than With The Stock Eustathios Build, So The Bed Probably Won'T Reach The Nozzle With The Standard Configuration (Should Work With The [Ballscrew Bed Mounts](Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:854267)). **Parts:** * 2 - [5015 Radial Fans*](Https://Www.Amazon.Com/Gp/Product/B00Pzt3Yd6/Ref=As_Li_Ss_Tl?Psc=1&Redirect=True&Ref_=Oh_Aui_Search_Detailpage&Linkcode=Sl1&Tag=Whirligh03-20&Linkid=Fa7C666295Ca3D7B67Db04D24D2069Db) - Link To 24V Version, You May Need A 12V Version Depending On Your Power Supply * 4 - [5X5Mm Magnets*](Http://Www.Dx.Com/P/237609?Utm_Rid=80235630&Utm_Source=Affiliate) - For Mounting The Cooling Duct * 2 - [2W 12V Led Modules*](Http://Www.Dx.Com/P/339160?Utm_Rid=80235630&Utm_Source=Affiliate) - Wired In Series Or Parallel Depending On Your Power Supply * 1 - 40Mm Fan - 12 Or 24V Depending On Your Power Supply * 6 - [Brass M3 Press Fit Inserts](Http://Www.Zoro.Com/Value-Brand-Press-Insert-Pk50-4Zu25/I/G3151863/?Q=4Zu25) * 4 - Self-Aligning Bushing ([8Mm](Http://Www.Ultibots.Com/8Mm-Bronze-Bearing-4-Pack-A-7Z41Mpsb08M/) Or [10Mm](Http://Www.Ultibots.Com/10Mm-Bronze-Bearing-4-Pack-A-7Z41Mpsb10M/)) * [Assorted M3 Screws](Http://Www.Trimcraftaviationrc.Com/) **Printer:** -- [Eustathios](Https://Github.Com/Eclsnowman/Eustathios-Spider-V2) **[Filaments:](Http://Thrinter.Com/Filaments)** -- [Atomic Glow In The Dark Petg](Http://Thrinter.Com/Walters-Filament-Collection-Petg/#Atomic-Glow) -- [Iap Clear Abs](Http://Thrinter.Com/Walters-Filament-Collection-Abs/#Iap-Clear) **Affiliate Links*
