Thanks for the input! I will compare the two nut traps later in S3D by overlaying them. Then I am sure. (this solution didn’t come to my mind earlier. Still in vacation mode as I habe another week week off at home!
Two printers make it much more pleasant! No filament changes and almost double the output (Kossel build plate is a tad smaller and round. So not so many parts fit on it.
Yes. The Z hole spacing is the same between the two. Ryan has mentioned multiple times that the Z nut traps are the only parts that are carried over from the Burly design.
I recut the stainless steel pipes for my feet with a hacksaw. I tried to get them straight, but they differ around ~0.3mm in themselves, so they are not cut completely straight. Am I going to have problems because of that? Additionally, one whole pipe is around 1mm shorter than the others.
I thought the nut traps are different, because they now need to hold M5 nuts, rather then M4 in the previous version. My answer refered to the tubes alone, I missed the part of the question mentioninig the nut traps.
The nut traps are different, made for M5 vs. M4/#6. The Z axis is reusable except for the nut traps. Or if you use the Burly tool mount then the whole Z axis is reusable including the nut traps.
Can’t seem to finish this step I’m on… I’m bolting into my last z trap I have broken 3 of them. It’s not from over tighten because they aren’t even making it that far. Trying a different filament now. It’s just splitting I’m using super glue gel to keep the nut in place. Only thing I can think of is the force of the nut is just to much and pulling it apart.
I also screwed the nut and bolt together beforehand to loosen the nylock.

If you’re using a nylock nut, run the bolt in and out of the nut a few times to loosen up he nylon “doughnut”, before you install it in the trap. Sometimes fresh Nylock nuts can take quite a bit of torque to get started.
I agree with you, it would be nice to have collets for the Makita in 1/8" and 4mm.
I already have one in my shopping cart for a long time. But the price is 24.50$ each plus 14.50$ shipping to Germany.
For now I will continue working with adapting the 6mm collet to smaller endmills.
I actually use the one from Sorotec for my 1/8" endmills. Actually I cannot find this specific one in their online shop any more, only for 3mm and 4mm like in below link: Reduction Sleeve 6 to 4 mm
I cannot judge the quality of these reductions but I get along with it.
I got this one from Aliexpress: https://a.aliexpress.com/_d6Yymc5 works well for me. Not sure how much run out it gives, compared to a proper collet, but it has worked well.
But after a while I’ve gotten this one, just to be sure. Don’t know how well they match eclaire, but the price is decent: https://shopuk.3dtek.xyz/product/makita-collets/ they have collets in all sizes
sure it has been said before, but any tips on which infill pattern on the core? know i can do a 70%-30%-70%, but not how in cura, been googling it, but dosen`t seem to save more that 19min om print time:P surly im doing something wrong:P
