Works great to liven up and refresh an older Anet A8. makes it much stiffer once you obtain the necessary plastic parts to go with this kit

Good product, but silly design flaw...
The seller and the product are fine.However, I have found the gantry or uprights have no real support. They are mounted perpendicular to the base rail, which leave nothing but small flimsy plastic bracket to hold the uprights square. This is due to the Creality Ender 3 X mounts that are used for the print head.The entire reason for doing this upgrade from an Anet A8 to the AM8 frame is for rigidity, and trueness of the frame. This design and its lack of purpose-built bracketry for this critical part makes this design silly.On a good note it is a simple fix, that unfortunately is not supplied with this kit. Go to the hardware store and buy a small section of 2" angle stock. Cut it into x4 1.5" sections, and drill to match the V or T slot rails. Then use the standard slot nuts, and screws. This will make the entire structure solid enough to stand on without flexing or running out of trueness.Come on people, we can do better...

Anet 8a to AM8
Shipping was fast. Frame is great and parts are all included. The aluminum corver supports are nice. Just take your time during assembly and it will be rock solid, wish it included a few tslot caps to help with cable management. No instructions but not complicated lots of videos on line. Download the Thingaverse instructions PDF worked great! Updgraded belts, linear bearings, PSU, went from Skynet to Marlin, everything else original Anet. First print was the little Benchy came out great!

Worked Great!
I really like how ended out the conversion, size of the extrusions was perfect, also I got some extra screws and nuts, but there are few changes to the original list of hardware created by the designer of the AM8 conversion.Nothing to worry about, you still have everything you need to complete the build.For example, you will find a bag with washers for the M5 screws in the package, and the original list doesn't mention those washers, so, you have to be creative on where do you need them. Also, they sent M6 for the tapped vertical extrusions, which I think is a good idea (the extrusions come with the correct tapped size for them).I think that everything is mentioned in the content of the package in the description of the item in Amazon (with eception of the M6 Screws), so, you can compare to the list of hardware needed created by the designer of the conversion.Now, final result, I'm super happy, I even feel like if the changes are an improvement.

Quality is excellent!
Exactly what I needed! Shipped from China via DHL and arrived exactly 7 days after the order was placed (shipped to Arizona). Obviously there are no installation instructions but if you are ordering this, then you probably hava an Anet A8 or similar. And if you built your 3d printer, swapping to this frame should not be too difficult. Took me about 6 hours to fully install and dial in the printer. This is the extrusion only. You'll need to print all of the brackets and motor mounts prior to installing.

This frame looks amazing
I loved everything about it. I wish a couple pieces were a bit longer. The brackets were a bit cheap, but it came together pretty easy. Definitely recommend it to anyone building a printer, or doing an AM8 conversion

Useless if you cannot print the parts
Bought the kit. No instructions. The questions and answers and the video referred to another similar kit.My ANET A8 acrylic plastic broke and I bought his frame to replace. I cannot print out the parts to finish the kit.Anyone know who has the plastic parts available for sale and if they have a good set of instructions?
