Parts left to upgrade MK3 to mk4
Hi
I'm wondering if one upgrades ones mk4s to the core one what parts will be left and what would one need to purchase extra to then upgrade mk3s to mk4. Then at least it might work out a bit cheaper to upgrade my old MK3 as well to mk4 😊
RE: Parts left to upgrade MK3 to mk4
As the official upgrade guide, or any further details, have not yet been released, we are uncertain which parts are to be reused and which are not. While it seems most of the extruder, the rods, electronics board, and motors etc will all be re-used in the Core One, we can't be sure what's left over until we see the official guide.
My guess is that pretty much everything is used other then the frame......

RE:
I’ve done this thought experiment already, looking at having to spend around £700 on spares to rebuild my mk4 into a workable printer again after upgrading to the core one using the upgrade kit and a 4s upgrade.
so far I think I’ll need the following bits:
PSU
Electronics board
Z axis rods
screen
buddy board
load sensor
nextruderbassembly
heater block
heatbed
x stepper
y stepper
z stepper x 2
So its way cheaper to buy the kit version of the core one because the route to the upgrade costs £500 for the core one upgrade plus the 4s upgrade
