Planned semi-major upgrade for ender 3s1
I've been wanting to do this upgrade for a while and there were a few different directions I could have taken this. My current plan is to use the stock board and breakout board and replace the entire toolhead with a) Eva 3 carriage b) orbiter 2.0 c) rapido clone (sort of) d) btt eddy probe e) splice all the wires to breakout board, except the eddy since it's usb or canbus only.
Modified a remix of the ender 3 s1 backplate and ebb holder to place the board on. The rest is standard or not-remixed-by-me Eva parts. For the wires I used heat shrink solder tubes, because it was easy.
The hotend should arrive today, the orbiter is here and I've had linear rails for well over a month. Once the hotend gets here I just need to make sure it fits, assemble everything and place on the gantry using the breakout cable.
I'll update more later in case anyone is interested. Wish me luck!
