  • Remove the right extruder

  • Add a offset spacer to the right side of the left extruder - extruder will crash if you don't do this as it can't reach the limit switch before the carriage hits the bracket

  • Add the Dreamer fan or similar to the left side - optional, you just need cooling

  • get a single extruder carriage. I got mine from from Raffle.ch who is no longer in business. Just search single extruder carriage for makerbot replicator 2x or something to that and tons will come up. I'd recommend aluminum, but only because I didn't trust the plastic options.

  • Longer X belt - GT2 I believe, amazon has tons of options

  • 8x12 borocilicate plate from Mcmaster PN : 8476K84

  • Silicone Thermal Pad - This distributes the heat a bit better since you'll have a good amount of overhang. amazon

  • Kapton tape - Place a layer sticky side down on the steel/ceramic bp, Make sure it's nice and flat, then stick the silicone pad to the bottom of the Glass BP, then stick that to the kapton. It won't move after that but it can be removed if needed. (Don't ask, it just works rediculously well)

  • Glass BP offset https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:452367

  • and then the tough part, you have to tweak the slicer settings to recognize that it has a larger BP. I'd shoot you my Simplified 3D settings but I'm not at home. It's not too complicated but I recall having a hard time with it. Flashforges uses the center of the BP as 0 and not the front left corner like repraps. So you'll have to do a little thinking here. Also, the tool head has an offset, I don't recall if the right extruder is 0 or -XXmm but you'll have to take that into account too.

  • Last thing you'll need is to cut your heatsink in half, the big aluminum bar that the hot ends fit in. make sure you cut it such that you have the two holes for the strain relief screws still intact, you'll need these for the offset spacer.

Sadly it's a blower fan like This which runs at 12v. I'll find it's info when I'm back home.

This should work, I'll check the plug size and reply to this post again. (The connector may be incorrect size, but polarity is positive) here you go
