Cool stuff man! Just got an A6 myself, looking forward next stage, glad to see I already made most of the upgrades you suggest :) keep up the good work
Very nicely done. I wanted to research upgrades prior to buying the A6 as a second printer. Your videos are extremely helpful thank you.
Great video! I bought the printer because of these potential upgrades. Thanks!
Finally a great video about Anet A6 with the upgrades well shown. Most of the videos are for the A8. Nicely done!
thank you for the great video's. i bought this 3d printer yesturday and your suggested upgrades today, i get everything from amazon by sunday, i can't wait. i love to tinker and build things, so this printer will be so much fun to assemble.
Fantastic number of mods. I was originally looking at a Creality Ender, but there was none available when I wanted one, this was the next best choice. I'm now running through evrerything and all the recommended mods. Susprising how many upgrades you can do
muito bom
melhor explicação que encontrei sobre "anet A6"
Parabéns!
pretty cool upgrades :) thank you a lot !
Well done. Need support brace for the back as well.
Very good video, the best one I found for the anet a6, looking forward for next video to see the next upgrades
Thanks mate! Check stage 2 upgrades :) th-cam.com/video/kMfQw6KD5NU/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for your channel, I enjoy watching it. I do have a question about the buildtak plate, in your Anet A8 review you recommended a vertex buildtak plate, is this one from Amazon as good? Oh! and also what is the A6 plate size, as the buildtak stick on surface from Amazon is 8"x8" which is smaller than the A8 plate
Awesome videos! I've just bought one of these so will definitely be doing some of these. Can you recommend an online community for the A6?
Very good work. Can I download the print file somewhere on the net?
I am particularly interested in the printer's holders to fix it on the table. Since I am a novice and have almost no experience in 3D printing, I would be very much helped. Thanks in advance.
some nice upgrades, thanks for the video
You welcome my friend. Feel free to check my other videos, there is so much more.
Hi, good work.
I would also like to try this myself, is it possible to download the files for the components somewhere?
Is one sheet of isolation enough to reach a temp of 110 Celsius or do you need to add one more (I have the a8)
I'm looking at either getting the A6 or A8 I see you have both are they similar in set up time and print quality. is one any better than the other in your opinion
Did you need all these mods? Have you seen any improvements on your prints? (I'm thinking of buying an A6)
Nice, like always nice informative video.
some questions:
did u print the upgrades with the anet a6 or oder 3d Printer?
please tell us your setting for you prints, layer,speed, temp, and all other or upload you profile and let us download please, I would like have nice prints like u.
witch slicer you use at most? simplify, cura, or other
last question:
which printer you prefer at this moment.
best regards 👍👍👍
So what kind of glue did you use to glue the insulation under the heatbed?
nice ^^ , I have and old prusa air V2, and I recommand to look like, because it's the same conception. you may have some new ideas
Did you print all of the printable upgrades with the A6 itself?
Great I also want to replace the extruder carriage on one of my old machines to a lighter E3D V6 with Bowden setup, so I will be following your progress closely.
Thanks for commenting. You can also check my other videos I already did this mod on my Almighty Anet A8 :D
Yes I know I have followed that series and I have done most of the modes to my Anet A8 also, but as you know the carriage is side by side on the A6 not one over the top like on the A8 so a different mount is needed, this is what I look forward to seeing, a light usable with sensor mount.
Did you take out the original cable with the car fuse? and with what did you replace this cable and the fuse?
im searching for a solution for my printer because the fuse burned and i want to savely upgrade my A6
How are you getting your prints soo smooth? Mine are all jittery?
Nice upgrades, very useful. Have you got the files for them?
Printer upgrades:
It's stealth black now... Lol
Do you have link of 3D model for printing air nozzle?
Can you share the power supply cover with LCD mod? Because on thingiverse have version with out LCD cover... ???
Thank you. I really like the upgrade you made. Is it possible to have the power supply cover stl with the voltage meter hole? Thanks again! I really enjoy doing those upgrade. I have not done them all yet (still waiting for some parts) but it already improved significatively the print quality.
Thank you :) Sure my friend!

what glue did you use for the Insulation I have some but not sure what to use. great video thanks
You can use B-7000 Industrial Adhesive Glue ebay.to/2rDVWsB or any silicon glue. Thanks
ok thanks
Where did you get the file for the hot bed extension thing?
Good evening, I have a problem with my printer, I finished the assembly, but when I put it to the desk, the printer switches off and on again. Can you help me?
Thanks for the videos they're awesome & have really helped me get started. :)
The link you posted for the heat bed insulation material constantly comes up with an error.
Could you please :) post exactly what the material is.
Hopefully I can sort it somewhere else if need be. Keep up the great videos.
Thanks mate for positive comment! Am glad I helped. Here you go! www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Funssor-4pcs-220x220-mm-Insulation-Cottons-220-220-3-mm-heated-bed-insulation-cotton-plate-Reprap/115344_32811463567.html?spm=2114.12010615.0.0.5Nn3Dp
Have you a glass plate or is this ineffect?
Aneta A6 czy a 8 kupić ? Co lepiej się sprawuje jako 1 drukarka
This is a irrelevant question but how did you secure the extruder motor on your a8 to the top? Its a awesome setup and I wanna do it as I ordered e3d with a bowden tube and stuff.
You need to print out this www.thingiverse.com/thing:2039986 and you are good to go :)
Did you have the link for the belt leveling adaptor you printed? I did not see it listed. Great work. I just ordered mine and am planning my mods already😉
Maybe is this one?

great vid!
Thanks mate!
Hello, I'm saving up for an A6. Neat to see upgrades for it. The A8 gets much more love. But I like the rotary button and frame of A6 better. How well does PLA release from that BuildTak? I've heard of it sticking too well and ripping the BuildTak.
Yes A6 is good upgrade! True that A8 have more love with upgrades but A6 is such great 3D printer. I love it. Rotary button and frame is definitely upgrade. So much easier and faster to navigate true software. PLA and BuildTak is like super glue and fingers :D Just joking. It stick very well. So well that after first layer you can switch off heated temps. But keep in mind that depend off how much nozzle is away from heatbed. For example if you will not print stick to much to BuildTak you can lift nozzle plus 0.1 Or even 0.2 From bed if you printing some object that have huge surface area. That will give you nice stick but you can take off much more easily. Same thing with temps. After couple times/weeks of printing you will get the idea and sense to use it right.
Thanks for detailed answer.
You welcome :)
u should also think about converting it into a anet a6 evolution this is a f*** awesome printer for low costs
Very thanks!!!
About the e3d v6 clones, is it true you can print up to 260 degrees with them? It has come to my attention that they still have some Teflon lining so I'm just worried about the toxic fumes. Thx for help!
Depends on the clone. Theres america made clones that are all metal. www.ebay.com/itm/Metal-J-head-V6-Hotend-1-75mm-Filament-0-4mm-Universal-Extruder-Reprap-3DPrinter/111990898166?_trksid=p2045573.c100507.m3226&_trkparms=aid%3D555014%26algo%3DPL.DEFAULT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D41375%26meid%3Db6ba8c3d220f44a0b59941b3011bf6b5%26pid%3D100507%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26
That one is ALL METAL, you could in theroy take a cheap clone and switch out the throat and have it be all metal too, but I haven't tried that. A link to all metal throat is here: www.ebay.com/itm/All-Metal-Stainless-Heat-Break-Barrel-for-RepRap-3D-Printer-1-75mm-DIY-Hotend/121705753727?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D40130%26meid%3D616208d9be8b4a3d8cf4c37ce091f77b%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26mehot%3Dlo%26sd%3D111531589519 or www.ebay.com/itm/Heat-Break-barrel-for-1-75mm-V6-V5-All-Metal-J-Head-Hot-End-3D-printer-RepRap-/111956107489?hash=item1a111aa0e1:g:ogoAAOSwgApW~~dv Do some research but that's the basics.
I never had problem reaching 260 degrees on my Anet A8 with clone V6. Working great for many months. I don't see any reason why this clone can't reach same temps.
nice video
Bought and build my Anet a6 printer just this week. But can you help me out with the airNozzel upgrade? Is there a link to that part?
Bas M I should be this one. Give it at try

Hi, I am Italian and I would buy a printer 3d. I am noob in this field. Can you suggest the good printer under the 200 dollars? A site for guide with video and images could be very useful for make upgrades that are necessary for a good print.

Хорошая доработка
Where is the link for the belt stand off mentioned in the video at.. th-cam.com/video/Mh4pvePZfKw/w-d-xo.html
Is it possible to install only the X Car? Without putting the brackets to the Z?
Yes.
I'm actually trying to figure out how to set up an e3d titan, geared extruder setup onto the a6. That's my ultimate end goal for filament versatility. With that setup, flex filaments are possible, giving you the ultimate in filament flexibility. Albeit with a compromise on weight. You can use a a smaller and lighter pancake stepper motor to make it lighter.
A bowden setup would be much easier to implement, but there are certain things that i don't like about the bowden setup in general...which boils down to filament response at the hot end. The long tube introduces a lot of flex, I just can't see how that could be good for retraction. There is a new design out on thingiverse for the x carriage here: It just came out today.

I'm following your progress on this printer as I just got mine this week and I'm printing stuff like crazy to upgrade mine too.
use the frankenstein E3D hotend! best mod for this printer!
Looks pretty cool but problem is you will lose Z height. X carriage will collide with rotation knob next to LCD
combine this with Anet A6 Evolution frame and youre great!
My Anet A6 came with steel core belts and it is claimed to be stronger than the fibre ones.
I do not know how true this is, but they dont stretch.
I nearly have all my peices printed for the upgrades, however now I'm in the middle of building an enclosure.
Just need to find a place for my smartswitch screen by xygax.
It's a Safety device sold by skynet3dmods on ebay.
Check it out if you get the chance, as it will give me peace of mind printing at night.
Thanks for this great informative video about upgrades.
Peace :-)
We need 9 point automatic bed leveling. I need it bad. ...lol
That can happen soon :D
Nexi Tech I'm looking forward to it!😀
No Switch over to Glass and Gluestick.
ABL, makes the cooling difficult, for there are little good fan ducts available.
And is more difficult when printing on glass, because of the bend aluminum hotbed underneath, what makes the ABL (hard)
I have tried and set it all up with ABL and Skynet, because of the compensating of the curve in the bed, your Z motors will make much more noise.
Eventually i go tired of it and wanted to use glass from day one, i focused on that, and got it fixed within 3 hours. Removed the Sensor, used a water leveler to check all the axis, made sure the smooth rods had NO movement, X Y and Z, Tightened the belts again, Flashed to A6 2.0 Firmware, Fitted the 3mm Glass, without the gluestick, leveled the hell out of the heated bed, 4 passes on all the corners.( And again with out heating when switching to PLA.)
Now i wonder why i should use 9 point leveling?
All the prints have a smooth bottom surface. Don't bend off the bend, and have really good quality.
You might want to Reconsider... :-)
i would like to see you mod the anet A3 mate .that's a challenge lol
True :D I might order one ;)
I would like to see that .can it be modded well it be modded lol .awesome videos keep it .
Is this buildtak better than the vertex or is it the same ? And is there somthing rong with this buildtak www.amazon.de/gp/aw/d/B01I4TM80I/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=ATJGF7B66S8S9&psc=1
I think its same thing. Vertex is just name of company. Builtak surface are very similar.
that printer in the background sounds like its dying!!!
Not even close :D It's just to much sensitive mic and echo from slow printing in background. I didn't notice until now. I try lower mic next time. :D
