At its core, HX0 is a re-design of theTri-Zero Z motion, with a revisedPandora Gantry. Without the aforementioned, none of this project would've been possible, so a great amount of thanks is due tozruncho3d andMasturMynd whom indirectly sent me down this rabbit hole!

Common Questions And Answers

Community Mods For HX0

When I started working on Hex-Zero, I wanted to address my main concern with Tri-Zero, which was the robustness of the flying bed. I also liked the more honeycomb look of the V0.2 skirts and wanted to incorporate that style into the Hex-Zero skirts. I also noticed some other compatibility issues with how I intended to build things so would need to address them. Below is a summary of some of the major tweaks and changes you'll notice when comparing Hex-Zero to Tri-Zero + Pandora Gantry.

1. Option to eitheruse bolts on all bearing stacksor pins on all bearing stacks
2. UseKGLM-03 spherical bearings in the flying bed Z joints (improve rigidity)
3. Reduced Z height of the Z motor mounts and skirts (part of the aesthetic changes)
4. New front Z tensioners/idlers to allow clearance with MiniSB (with additional travel of pandora style gantry)
5. Optimize printed parts to beeasier to print
6. More best-agon hexagons!

Documentation is another frequently overlooked aspect of projects like these (and by far the most time-consuming thing to complete). When I first started this journey (before even designing anything), I had many questions about hardware compatibility, such as "If I do thing A, can I also do thing B", "To do thing C, what do I need for thing D" and "Will doing thing E even work!" To make this project as accessible as possible, I intend to develop documentation and resources that address as many common questions as possible!

I want to extend a massive thanks to everyone who took a leap of faith in building and testing this project in its early stages, below is a collage of some HX0s built during the beta testing of this project :)
