Design and Model

This model is for the ultimate version of the Creality Hi - CFS overhead mount.

The model includes all parts to mount the CFS on top of the Creality Hi. The design is very robust and can safely hold the CFS above the Creality Hi.

This model is based on the Ace-Pro overhead mount which have more than 10k downloads. You can follow the link to see user comments. (https://www.makeronline.com/en/model/KOBRA-3%20ACE%20OVERHEAD%20MOUNT%20V2/31836.html).

The ultimate version of the Hi-CFS mount offers the following features:

• Extra desk space;
• Tool tray and other add-ons (free download - see the links below);
• A buffer holder. The buffer holder allows a quick connect and disconnect between the CFS and an external spool (free download - see the links below);
• External spool mount (free download - see the links below);
• Side trays, side containers, tool holders and more (free download - see the links below).
• Dual drawers with grid-finity style customizable inserts;
• Dual build plate holders;
• Clips for mounting an LED and more.

A standard version of the Hi-CFS mount is also available. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/tool/creality-hi-cfs-overhead-mount-standard

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

PRINTING TIME AND FILAMENT

Standard model Print time (base unit) 22.5 hours Filament: 1 kg Ultimate model: Print time 1 day 18 hours Filament: 1.8 kg

IMPORTANT: If you are having issues printing the tall cabinets on the Creality Hi I was informed that by reducing the XY jerk value to 8 (see last model photo above for where to change the setting) that it printed much better and without the waves. This menu is available in the preview tab - Filament - Objects.

EXTERNAL HARDWARE The model does not require any external hardware except for 6 wood screws for the LED clips (no.6 x 1/2 inch 3.5 mm x 13.5 mm).

With the CFS Buffer holder V2 (free add-on see link below) the CFS overhead mount no longer requires purchasing an extension cable.

A 1.5m 6pin 485 cable will be required. See link (NO CABLE NEEDED WITH THE CFS BUFFER V2 - SEE ABOVE):

3D PRINTING

IMPORTANT – PRINT SETTINGS

I upload a print setting files for all my models. The print settings has the parts positioned for correct printing and with support painted. Use “Tree Manual” as the support setting. I strongly recommended you use my print setting file. If not, I will not be able to assist you if there is an issue when printing. From experience, many of the issues with printing my models are on account of users not using my print settings.

3D PRINT SETTINGS

I use the following settings and materials to print this model: Infill % : 15% (no need for more) Nozzle diameter: 0.4 mm Layer height: 0.2 mm standard Material: PLA is recommended as its more rigid. PETG or other filaments may cause the part to deform or may not work with the built-in tolerances. PLA-CF and PETG CF and other materials often print too wide and cause parts not to fit.
