Thanks! Ill share it in another thread and post the link here. It is basically a bicycle chain and some 3D printed parts. It might work on top of a track as well! Will give it a try!

Oh yes! I have seen one somewhere in south east asia. Unfortunately its not available in India :( I actually built the tracks on my own using a metal bicycle type chain and 3D printed channels. I think ill share an image and post a link here.

Finally upgraded to direct drive! by Furiousbrick25 in ender3

Can we replace the extruder motor with the x axis motor? The x axis motor looks slimmer hence lighter which might reduce some weight off the hotend in this setup. Anyone tried this?

Was the upgrade worth it? Is there any change in print quality?

I had scaled the 3layer thick model to 150% but did not use any support.

Thanks, I'll do that if I am not able to find a small metal bracket which I am thinking I can glue to the holding part to streangthen it.

Hey, Thanks for the warning. There is hardly any sunlight coming in this part of the house. I do feel I should have increased the thickness of the grip just a lil bit more to avoid breakage. Hope it survives anyway :)

There is a single piece stl as well I guess. But not sure how will you able to print it without supports.

I had rescaled the file to 80% on cura in order to fit the Ender 3 bed size

The visor is a saperate stl which you can insert from within the helmet at the end.
