 ====== Modifications for the ANYCUBIC I3 MEGA 3d printer ======
-This page lists modification guides for the ANYCUBIC I3 MEGA. Specifically, the following:

-===== Distribution circuit board =====
+===== Antclaps BLTouch retrofit guide =====
-The external connections of the 3d-printer are neither very robust, nor do they offer much flexibility in respect to upgrading/changing the printer. From the original distribution circuit board a new board was designed which has both the original and D-sub connectors.

-The original circuit board was analyzed using a flatbed scanner:

-The new circuit board consists of two parts, which can be separated with a so-called mouse-bite. The small circuit board is meant to be located at the other side of the printer. With this the wiring underneath the printer for the X-stepper and Z-stepper-L can be tidied up and organized much better.
