Sidewinder X1 Bondtech LGX with Copperhead mounting plate

Artillery Sidewinder X1 mounting plate for the Bondtech LGX with Copperhead extruder upgrade kit (with CopperHead hotblock)

This is a remix from a Thingiverse item : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4860093

The extruder upgrade can be mounted on the original plate as shown on the Bondtech site.

However, this has some limitations to my opinion :

• a spacer must be installed on the Z axis (included on the Bondtech kit)
• the hotsink fan hits the X axis on the left, so you have to shift the X axis board and stop sensor by 2or 3 mm on the right as a workaround
• the extruder is longer than the original one, thus you have to lower the bed near its lowest position. This can be a limitation if you want to use optional plates on your bed (PEI, etc)

This plate remove these limitations.

A shifted position of the extruder compensates its dimension and put the noozle close to its original position.

It allows an easier extruder replacement if you use multiple extruders (genuine, Bondtech....)

You will need 2 M3-25 screws and nuts for the fan. The plate has nuts holes, tight fit to hold them in place.

Last, bridges have been modified and added to the original design for rigidity purposes.

Part can be printed in PLA+/PETG but I would highly recommend more resistant material, especially if you print at higher temperatures (ABS, ASA, etc)

Enjoy and please give feedback and suggestions if this design can be improved.
