Hello

Hi All,

I've been 3d printing for over a year now started with an Ender 3 and did quite a few mods to it. I now have an Ender 6 which I'm slowly modding into a trident. I'm currently running the following mods:

Klipper
SKR2 board
Linear Rails mgn9s for y mgn12 for x (using a linear rail mod I found on cults)
Stealthburner (rapido UHF)
BTT U2C usb to CAN board
BTT eb sb2209 CAN toolhead board
BTT smart filament sensor
BTT Pitft50 with klipperscreen
Klicky probe
Pei sheet

I'm currently sourcing and printing the parts for the final full conversion.

Welcome! Look forward to seeing your progress.

Thanks I saw there was a couple of mods available here for a 2040 frame which will come in useful. Hoping to make some progress this month

Did you ever finish this E6 conversion? 

[brownbear1984]

Mostly yes. But as with most things there's always mods and tweaks that I'd like to do. Recent addition is the ERCF but that's taking a while to tune.

Cool. Do you have a link to the mod you have for the bed? Im looking at modifying my ender 6 and like the look of the setup you have.

It's not a mod it's the trident z axis only change was slightly longer 2020 extrusions to mount the bed. The only modded parts needed for this is the 2040 gantry brackets and the 2040 z motor mounts. The rest of the printed parts are from the trident.
