i3 -> i3 MK2
hi community,
just a short question: are the y-carriages from the i3 and i3 MK2 identical ?
or does the upgrade kit provide a new carriage (couldn find it listed in the parts of the upgrade at the shop) ?

Re: i3 -> i3 MK2
Yes, the Y chassis and frame are pretty much identical, but the chassis has different orientation and the printed parts are different.

Re: i3 -> i3 MK2
thanks peter.
do you mean with "the chassis has different orientation", that the extruder carriage is the other way round (fans at the rear, nozzle at the front) ?
or are there other issues ?

Re: i3 -> i3 MK2
No; the Y carriage is turned 180 degrees (2-1 bearings becomes 1-2 bearings). Nothing to do with the Extruder/X carriage (you asked about Y)
