Ordering only the big plastic parts?

I have Prusa Mini and I built my MPCNC with it. Now I’m about to convert MPCNC into Lowrider, but Prusa Mini doesn’t have big enough build volume for all the plastic parts (180 x 180 x 180 mm). Is it possible to order only the plastic parts that don’t fit into that build volume, instead of the whole set?

You could contact @Jonathjon or anyone close to you with a printer and time to do it.

Ryan used to offer the core for the LR3.

@vicious1 - maybe you want to do a core and YZ bundle for LR4

To ship those three parts it will still require the large flat rate box. I can figure out a price but it will be a little more than half the current cost if you are interested.

Is there any possibilities that you are from Finland?

Where are you from?

It seems that the core will fit in that build volume diagonally, so probably only the YZ plates and temp struts are too big to print, and the temp struts can be milled with MPCNC before taking it apart?

As I’m going to order all the hardware for conversion, including XZ plates (would be fun to mill, but can’t find aluminium cheap enough) those YZ plates probably don’t add too much to the freight.

Could you sanity check that thinking, and how can I order the plates?

Absolutely.

That still probably jumps you up a box size depending on what is in your order.

Place your order, and then reply to the email to let me know you want to and a set of YZ plates. From there I can give you a real number. I am heading out for the night but will be availabe again tomorrow.

Got around to advancing this. When checking the MPCNC Primo → LR4 conversion part list against what’s available in store, it seems that I need one 145mm lead screw, but those are only available in pairs. Also, would be awesome if I wouldn’t have to hunt for M2.5 x 12mm screws. All the other needed stuff seems to be available.

Any chance you could add options for ordering single lead screw, YZ plates and the small screws to the store and I could just place the order? I’d also very much like to have a single invoice for the order, instead of first placing the order and then making changes.

Isn’t there an upgrade kit?

/edit: Not for the Primo it seems.

Sorry that makes things pretty difficult on my end.
