That’s really cool to hear you’re following the instructions. In response to your questions:
Hello, thank you for answer! This is assaf Whom sent the email.
I got my self a Mellow E3 RRF board, it does have enough stepper drivers to work with 4 axis for now this will be enough, I will consider getting a duet board if there will be an integration of 5th axis by you guys or rather by me if I will find it possible.(Considering the price of the duet boards this was a easy buy for me just to test the concept).
I found myself a motor that will fit the original design, I could find a seller on aliexpress that sold me a nema11 27:1 motor that should just fit in the design, if not I will make some changes to make it fit.
I have got myself a Prusa clone just beacuse I thought that assembling it on a original prusa is hurtful lol, considering they are pretty expensive in my country and I could find the clone for less than a half price so it will be good for testing this. I will update in this thread about my work using the different board.
3-4 Thank you!! this is really helpful, and releasing this project as open source is amazing and I am really happy about it, I am 7 years into printing and always wanted to try more than the normal "2.5D" printing.
All sounds good! Let us know any progress, if you need to make changes to any of the brackets keep good records along with any other necessary deviations from the guidance doc. Then we'll be able to quickly write a custom guide for your printer and controller, which only states what needs to be done differently to the original guidance. The idea is that eventually, there may be 100s of different printer and controllers, but only a single guide, with infinite possible minor variations of it.

Hello, I am currently following your mod for the 4th axis for the prusa and I have few questions.
