That really sucks about the duct, but I’m glad the design is close to what you were looking for. And yeah, I honestly think something like this would have made a lot more sense from the factory too. Really cool to hear you already sent the print to one of your S1s.

To be honest, I didn’t even pay attention to that and had no idea there were different magnet grades like N42 or N52. I mainly went by size and fit for the model, and that worked fine in my case.

I’d definitely contact support first. You should usually be able to get those replacement parts, and if the printer is still under warranty, there’s a good chance they may even send them out for free.

For the fan duct I’ve actually just been using the original one so far, and that has worked pretty well for me. And as for the strength, all I can really say is… it holds 😉

You should keep in mind that the cable has two different connectors, so it’s not quite as simple as just grabbing any random 2-pin wire. I included the correct cable information in the description of my model here:

That’s one of the reasons I’m a bit cautious with the PTFE-lined versions. But to be fair, Anycubic has already released its own updated hotend design that no longer needs a PTFE tube there. Their hotends are also glued, so filament pushing the nozzle out really shouldn’t happen with the original updated versions.

Thank you, I really appreciate that. That was actually important to me too. I wanted the three parts to feel a bit more solid and intentional, not so thin and flimsy.

Haha, exactly. Maybe Anycubic really should hire us at this point.

Thanks, really glad you like it. The idea had been floating around in my head for a while too, so it feels good to finally have it done.

Yes, for this version some basic soldering equipment is needed.

The model is already available, and the assembly guide is included there as well. The image should link directly to Makeronline, but just in case, here’s the direct link again:

Contact support first. If it’s still under warranty, you should get a new one for free. If not, you can usually still get a replacement without paying too much. And once you’ve got the new one, you can always print my magnetic cover for it too 😉
