@genghisnico13 Thanks for the reassurance on the existing mosfet board.

Being honest, I don't know what spreadcycle is all about, I have heard of the terminology as well as stealthchop, but I don't know enough about it to know if that will be a problem for me. In terms of mounting the board, I have already got rid of the main box and got everything tucked underneath, so I can adapt that easily.

I am not sure if I will do anything with the screen yet, I currently run octoprint, so getting rid of the LCD will just slim things down a little more.

@gpetropoulos No, for me at the moment, there doesn't seem to be much of a benefit in going to 24v, the structure of the machine will probably be the weakest link when I try to turn up the speeds. I'll save the 24v conversion for when I build a corexy.

This is exactly the kind of advice I was hoping for. I believe the bed sensor to be a pt100? Thank you.

Having done lots of reading, I am about to buy a new board for my CR-10, can anyone tell me if my current stock components are compatible?

Stepper motors : I am guessing these will be fine.

Extruder/ hot end : These have been replaced with a genuine Titan Aero so I am guessing this will be one of the easier bits to confirm.

The bit I am most uncertain of is the heated bed and temp sensor, Creality has only just decided to go open source, so finding definitive specs isn't easy, but it appears to be a 12v 220watt bed, the temp sensor is unknown (to me at least)

I suppose the real question is, will I be able to just wire in my bed heater and temp sensor directly? The bed is currently run from a Mosfet board (two thin gauge signal wires from the main board and a direct connection to the power supply.)
Will I need to replace this, or do away with it all together?

Thanks for any guidance or install tips.

Kurt.
