Hello, I have an i3 rework, recently i got a mk8 clone because i wanted to get rid of the Wade's and move to direct drive, however finding a carriage which suits my needs was not easy, my hotend is an e3d clone. I printed an Anet A8 carriage, which i modified to have the hot end reack the plate (the height was not enough). This is what i have in place now, but I'm not confortable with it since its very near to the build plate and it touches the cmamps some times. I can't do any more change to it wouth out messing with the screw holes. Any recomendations on a new carriage for my machine? thanks https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?406,807050,807050#msg-807050 Thu, 12 Mar 2026 15:44:12 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?406,807050,807050#msg-807050 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?406,807050,807050#msg-807050 mk8 clone because i wanted to get rid of the Wade's and move to direct drive, however finding a carriage which suits my needs was not easy, my hotend is an e3d clone.
