I’ll do my best! I’ve gone for the parts kit from triangle labs. I figure worst case it can probably be persuaded to work with something a bit less proprietary down the line. 20-30 day lead time on parts, $75 - I think I’m going to need some Bambu parts in addition, but I’ll do my best to document it as I go.
It’s been slow going I’m afraid (not the fault of the BMCU). What I’ve learned is some kind of buffer/auto rewinding spool holder is needed for the P1S for the filament retraction and that’s making things too big for my enclosure, so I’m going down the route of solving that problem first.
On the BMCU side of things, everything is printed and ready to assemble, just need some time 😄
