Anycubic Mega X Direct Drive Conversion

Easy design to convert an Anycubic Mega X to a direct drive for use with softer materials.
Designed to be used with the upgrade Bondtech LGX Extruder AND Bondtech LGX Shortcut Copperhead printhead and two 40mm x 40mm x 10mm fans (exhaust mounted internally, supply side mounted externally).

Other than some M3 bolts (and nuts), there would be no additional hardware needed.

Bypass the bowden extruder, remove factory carriage and hotend. I suggest a new mounting of the filament spool on the top rail. Second file is a quickly designed shim to help keep circuit board in place (I put a small screw in it to hold it snug).
