Initial build of the Anet A8 upgrade

I started to upgrade my Anet A8 to proper aluminium extrusions. I am using the fantastic project called AM8.

I started with my initial build:

Anet A8 3D printer before AM8 conversion
Anet A8 disassembled for AM8 frame upgrade

Finalizing the mechanical part

This weekend I finished the mechanical part of the upgrade of my Anet A8 to the aluminium AM8.

Next step is finishing the electrical installation and setting up the firmware.
