!!!!!!****NOTE*****!!!!!!! 

These are the only files that have been modified. You will need to get the remainder of the files from the RatRig GitHub. The instruction manuals for the RatRig V-Core 3.1 assembly still apply. However, you will need to substitute some of the files with these to work with the Ender 5 Plus.

I will be adding a BOM and instruction for this project down the road, but it may be a while before they are ready. I will also add the config files for the Manta M8P and the Octopus. However, They take a lot of time to make and as yet I am still tweaking the first converted printer. Sorry, but don't bother asking for them as they aren't ready.

The Base Case (lower enclosure to house the electronics) is an entirely different project. Those files can be found here.

I can be found in Facebook Group 3D Printer Modding. Come join us in creating new printer options. Follow me or at least LIKE the project to easily find this as things get added or changed. Thanks.

These are the only files that have been modified from the RatRig VCore 3 GitHub to work with the Ender 5 Plus. These files work with 2020 and 2040 extruded aluminum versus the 3030 aluminum the RatRig uses.
