This is a WIP of my converion to a Bowden setup of my Anet A8 as I hate to put the filament in the stock extruder, and I want the carriage to be lighter.
It uses the stock Anet sensor for bed leveling and the stock radial fan for part cooling. the Hotend should work with E3d V6 (what I use) and hexagon Hotend (to be tested).
Sensor offset is X-22.5 Y0
I'm still in the testing of this setup, so try it out if you want to and tell me what I can improve.
V0.2:
-updated the part fan so that the air gets directed more towards the part and blows less on the nozzle
-made the radius on the belt holder larger so that its easier to put the belt in place.
