MakerBot Replicator Core

MakerBot Replicator Core - This is a supper project. As I didn't have a 3d printer capable of printing abs I first spent quite some time modding the stock replicator with a new mainboard and klipper along with replacing the thermistors and inclosing it in order to print all the part in abs. Just like the spirit of reprap. Learning to successfully print abs was a jurny in itself, but after a lot of failed prints I finally develope a proces that left me with all the parts needed to upgrazthe printer. I was truly amazed with how easly everything come together and how much thought was put into the design. I chose to use a different hotend and extruder (bambu lab x1c hothend and a hgx light extruder) The part that gave me the most trouble were the belts it took me took me longer than I would like to admit to figure out that the problem was that I bought steel core belts which caused un even tension resulting in very skewed prints. After replacing them with regular gt2 belts everything works really well I haven't yet tried pushing the printer to its limits but it works just as well as my heavily modded ender 3 - 3d model
