Electronics

Order the cheapest you can find of the following items:

Qty. Part Est. Price Description Link
1 AS5600⁽¹⁾ 1$ Magnetic encoder breakout board, used for rotation detection aliexpress
1 MK3S IR Sensor⁽²⁾ 5$ IR sensor for filament presence detection aliexpress
1 Waveshare RP2040-Zero 3$ Order the board only without pre-soldered headers aliexpress
1 Wires Some lengths of wire to connect everything together (soldering required)
1 JST-XH male 4-pin (Optional) Fits in the provided bottom cover

Notes:

  1. The linked AS5600 breakout board comes with a 3mm diameter magnet. If you must purchase a magnet separately, make sure it has its poles oriented across its diameter, not across the thickness.
  2. The IR sensor does not require any of the usual MK3S hardware although many kits on Aliexpress are sold with the extra hardware. Only a small 2mm self-tapping screw is needed to attach the PCB.

Notes:

  1. It's possible to use the shaft of the large plastic gear that comes with the BMG extruder kit instead of purchasing a separate 5mm rod. Simply push out the plastic gear and grind down the theethed part of the shaft so that it fits properly in the 5mm bearings.
