Anet A6/A8 Bed Level Thumbwheel Upgrade
Description
Manual Bed Leveling The Anet A6/A8 Is A Little Awkward And Could Be Made A Lot Easier. There Are Some Good Solutions On The Net - I Took The Best, Made Modifications And Kept It Simple. This Solution Allows You To Cover The Entire Hotbed With A Build Plate As You No Longer Need Access To Adjusting Bolts From The Build Surface. All Adjustment Is Done With The Thumbwheels! All Metal! At The Hot End - This Allows You To Heat Up The Bed For Abs, Nylon And Other High Temperature Filaments Without Melting Your Bed Level Adjustment. *>> Don'T Forget, If You Like It, Please Leave A Like Or A Tip... :)* **From The Kit You Will Need:** - 4X Springs - 4X Screw M3*30 **Additional You Will Need:** - 8X M3 Nut (Optional: Use Self-Locking Nuts For Thumbwheels) - 4X Steel/Nylon M3 Washer (Optional: I Used Large, But Regular Is Ok) - 4X Spring Cap (Print Model) - 4X Thumbwheel (Print Model) - A 3Mm Or 1/8" Drill For Stripping M3 Thread **Note:** To Make This Bed Level Upgrade, You Need To Strip The M3 Thread In The Y Carriage Aluminum Frame. This Can Not Be Reversed. If Your Heatbed Has Copper Traces Under The Washers, I Recommend Using Nylon Washers Instead Of Metal To Protect The Heating Element ([Ebay Search](Https://Www.Ebay.Com/Sch/I.Html?_Nkw=M3+Nylon+Washer)). Just Follow The Photos To Assemble.The M3 Nuts Is A Tight Fit In The Thumbwheels To Prevent Them Falling Out. **2018 January 13.: Added Thumbwheel For Nylock Nuts.**
