        Did the swap over , using the bmgx2 has Feeder magazine heading to a y adapter , to the orbiter , only did a few test but everything seem to work as intended . I accidentally burn one of the fan mosfet , error in config , I just moved it to another pin my fault on that one . Just need to tweak and make some duck fory cooling fan.

        I think I can call this v3 of my printer

              Well I have ordered the last few things I need to make the lighter y carriage going in , all the side panel to enclose the top have been printed as well , him now printing the new motor mount , so once I receive those carbon fiber tubing I can swap the whole things and test again . When with a hiwin mgn9 rail with short block . Decide to go with quality components over cheaper one

                Well new y gantry and axis is nearly done building got a few more part to print to be able to swap over , everything is printed in nylon pa6 cf , overall weight savings on moving axis will be from 500g to 1000g at least , I shrinked a few part as well for more weight savings. Hgr 15 weight 750g for 500mm new mgn9 with rail, block and carbon fiber tubing is like 280g .

                      @Dad003 Well ive installed the new rail this week but found that i messed up the heigh of my motor mount unfortunately lol , had made a mistake on some part when i drawn then on my cad software so about 12mm too high, so i had to put some spacer to lift up the rail higher . so got the corrected motor mount reprinted and did a few tweak as well , waiting for more brass heat set insert to swap over again.

                      so far printing look very good on new motor mount , i think it an improvement from 1-1.5lbs lighter at least than last iteration , ordered 4 more stepper motor with different spec which i think will help me achieve the acceleration and speed him looking . him definitively getting closer to the end of this build i think . Speed an quality.
