Damn! How much does that weigh in feathers?

So I'm building a box turtle ams for my modded to all hell ender 3. My main idea was to create a filament cutter for the microswiss ng, but I cannot figure out a good way to do it with such a low filament travel path...which really sucks, as this is a very good hot end. Since I'm already doing this ams project, and have a wedding (very excited to marry my future wife) coming up, I really don't have the time for a second project. At this point I believe it will be easier to 3d print a voron hotend adapter to work with my ender 3, then to try and retrofit a filament cutter onto my ender 3 microswiss.

If you guys and gals know of anyone selling a completed one. Or have any ideas, please let me know!

I do know python so scripting isn't alien to me! I doubt I'll be able to do something to this caliber though lol.

So the filament cutter was remixed from this:

The link to it is here:

The first link I sent you is someone who has combined another microswiss ng hotend with the filament cutter base, and since microswiss gave me the step file for the ender 3 version, I was wondering if this was an absolute undertaking, or if it's not as complicated as I think

If you'd like to take a look at the microswiss step file DM me and I'll send it

Lol that's the part that really sucks. I just bought an armored turtle box turtle kit which comes with everything to make the filametrix, but I would hate to just get rid of the microswiss if there's another way to do this, since this machine is primarily for you and the box turtle is for switching to PLA for supports.

I usually use fusion/ on shape. I had no idea openscad could do something like this and I'm wondering if that's my route.

I meant filament cutter. My apologies

So I was able to get the cad files from the good folks at micro swiss for their microswiss ng ender 3 edition. I also found a step file for a generic filament slicer. How easy would it be for me to somehow combine the two? I am okay at cad. But this seems like an undertaking, unless there's an easy way to do it. Has anyone done something like this before? The closest I've found was someone made one for the microswiss ng ender 5 edition, but I haven't been able to get a hold of the creator.

The bankruptcy claim comes up a lot. I hate Trump as much as anyone who can form opinions that don't come from a radio talk show, but I'd be willing to he's the bankruptcies were by design. He probably did what the toys r us CEO and 50 cent did, where they funnel money out of a company, and the company goes under.

That being said. He's still a fucking piece of shit who's making the founding fathers roll in their graves
