Chaoticlabs cnc full rebuild

[3dCase]

Finally the time came to totally rebuild my V2.4 350 with chaoticlabs cnc kit to replace all the plastic parts.
At the same time I will address the crooked bed, get rid of clicky and z limit, already got rid of x and y limits. Will install canbus and cartographer.
First impressions of the chaoticlabs kit are unbelievably good, no missing parts, everything fits like a glove, finish is perfect and packaging is almost too good (very hard to unpack the tightly wrapped fasteners). The whole mechanical dissasembly and rebuild took about 8 hours sofar. Will do little things after work during the week and next weekend hopefully get started on the canbus and wiring. Got to figure out my mounting of the toolhead because its my own design and my voron has 2 linear rails for the x axis so it is not exactly like what the cartographer parts are in need of, but it will be ok.
Pleased with todays progress
Forgot to mention also that I already relocated the electronics and removed those daft cable chains. Months of grief with those and having to lay your printer on its back everytime you need to get to those electronics gets boring very fast, so seperate controlbox on an umbilical and the base will stay open.

I found that one of the mgn9 rails for the x acis deformed at the point where the fixing screws are located. When I took it of it has a ridge along its back which makes it sit not level in the length of the 2020 profile. This comes as no surprise really, as the buying guide leads you to shitty cheap rails from unidentifyable origin and no guarantee for any quality or grade.
Purchased an original Hiwin mgn15 and I already have a carriage with Z1 and gradeP so will just be using one rail for the toolhead.
Nearly finished milling a small adapter plate from mgn9 to mgn15.
