Creality K1 EBB42 mount

I abandoned this model in favor of the adapter mount included in this set of parts. 

I wanted to use an eddy coil scanner on my K1. I wanted to run mainline Klipper. This meant that I had to replace the motherboard with something else.  

I kind of wanted to also replace the toolhead board, but fate made the choice for me when I fried the toolhead board by mistake. Whoops.

This snowballed into:

• BTT Manta M5P
• BTT CB2 compute module
• Cartographer
• BTT EBB42 toolhead board
• BTT TFT35 SPI display

So anyway, this is an adapter to mount an EBB42 toolhead board on the stock K1 x-carriage. The stock 3010 fan blowing on the hot end can be retained, but the wires need to be re-terminated with 2-pin JST-XH connector. 

This is not really a straightforward swap. It involves re-terminating basically every toolhead connector, flashing Katapult and Klipper, getting CANBUS working, and ditching the cable chain.

The mainboard swap basically necessitated a skirt for bottom of the printer that provided extra room for electronics and provided tie-downs to keep the wiring away from the Z-axis belts. 

You'll need a part fan mount and shroud. The footprint of the EBB42 differs from the stock toolhead board enough that many shrouds will not fit. I made a shroud, but I am not happy with it yet. 

I suggest that you print this from ABS or ASA. The print settings probably don't matter. You will need four M2.5 heat set inserts and some screws.
