    A Wanhao i3 Duh! (these parts will also allow you to upgrade most other prusa style printers, just adjust the lengths of your printer compared to the Wanhao’s smooth rods (X=320mm Z=320mm Y=380mm)

====Cable organizer====
 
* https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2568136
    14x Corner Brackets 30x30x25 - Importantly these should be reversible or only be tabbed on one side! We are stacking two extrusions perpendicular on top of eachother. If they are fully tabbed on both sides they will NOT fit. HBLFSNB6 with low profile T-nuts or the single tabbed version HBLFSNK6.
* https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2863975
 
====Raspberry pi case====
    8x Aluminium Corner plates with 4 mounting holes. The legs and printed corner parts are all based on the misumi hole spacing HPTLS6.

* https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2581113
    4x LM8UU Bearings. These replace the stock Z bearings. It is also worthwhile purchasing some of the longer LM8LUU bearing to replace the X and Y axises if you are coming from a pre 2.1 wanhao. These misumi ones are much higher quality than the originals. LMU8, LMUW8.

    80 M5 T-Nuts. Drop in T-nuts are recommended as they are easier to work with. Some drop in T-Nuts have a longer neck which can cause issues with the Misumi HBLFSNB6 corner brackets. One side of the bracket is protruded, so that even when screwed in very tightly they don't apply enough compression force to secure the frame. In this case 14 T-nuts can be substituted with flat style ones, or pieces of fibre washers can be glued into the grooved areas to reduce the protrusion depth. Misumi also have t-nuts designed specifically for this bracket HNTT6-5. 14 of these can be used.

    1x M5 20-25 mm Button Head screw (low profile) The head needs to be 4.2mm or less long as this sits between the idler part and the leadscrew.

    22x M3 Heat-sert Brass inserts (M3-UHBRHESF) W4.4mm x H5.8mm or similar. These are set into parts using a hot soldering iron and are great for making strong functional parts without having to worry about screw threads stripping over time. Proper thermal inserts are recommended, but the easier to source injection molding type ones should work almost as well.

    4x 6-8mm M3 countersunk
 
    8x 6-12mm countersunk (for leadscrew nuts) you also may want to secure these with nylocks m3 x8
 
    2x M5 Nylock nut
 
    1x M3 Nylock for part cooling bracket. 6 more can be used as a substitute for the extruder assembly if Heat-serts cannot be found.
 
    Some fasteners are carried across from the Wanhao. This includes the hotend screws, and the M4 x-carriage screws.
 
    (Optional) 2x M5 Smooth Idler Pulleys. The original Wanhao pulleys are prone to failure over time and are 11mm wide. i recommend switching them out with new ones while doing this mod. Most replecement ones are 9mm wide which allows you to use the X Gantry Idler 9MM part instead of the X Gantry Idler 11mm (Stock idler) part. The 9mm version has thicker walls which should make it more durable over time.
 
    3-10 M5 washers (Steel or fibrous). Used to secure the X and Y idlers. Variable number required depending on their thickness and whether you are using stock idlers or the usually thinner aftermarket ones.
 
    1 Meter of GT2 6mm belt. The X carriage distances are increased and the stock belt may not be long enough. aprox 770mm is required.
 
    50mm Blower Fan. Hopefully you should already have one of these in your arsenal as they make a huge improvement to print quality
 
Fasteners required
