I don't charge for my functional models. Please consider purchasing some of my paid models as a way to support both my work, and this great website: https://www.printables.com/@ninjamida/store


This design was never perfected and is now considered abandoned (as I have chosen to take a different approach). It is left online in case anyone else wants to try using it or improving it. 

Created as part of my project to enable eight-color (and beyond) printing on the Flashforge AD5X; this piece can be attached to an Anycubic X-in-1 adapter to use it with generic printers. There are numerous printed models for those adapters themself out there, too.

Got a printed X-in-1 adapter and accidentally snapped the tip off? No problem - there's a variant included for exactly that situation!

(Please note: My testing is indeed based off a printed adapter, not a legit one. Let me know if there are any issues using this with legit ones. I do intend to get myself a legit one eventually, I just wanted to test with a cheaper option first.)

Print with small layer heights (0.1mm should be low enough), use a 0.4mm nozzle. 3+ walls recommended. I used ABS. Use two M3x8 or M3x10 screws to attach it. Use a PTFE pneumatic connector with an M6 thread (you may need some pliers). No nuts or inserts are needed; the screwholes are designed so that almost any appropriate-size screw will self-thread in them.
