I'll never adjust the bed again!!!! Evil Laugh

In a previous video I took a look at my generic Triple-Z solution for cube style printers. I highly suggest you watch that video first as it goes into a bit more depth on how the gantry works, the electronics, configuration, etc:    • Triple Z Bed Levelling for Your Cube ...  . In this video I'm installing that same Triple Z leveling setup into my X5SA.

What you'll need:
A control board or multi-mcu setup with at least seven steppers. I personally use the BTT Octopus: https://amzn.to/3gfoE0g
A total of five 8mm smooth rods (500mm, four came with the printer): https://amzn.to/3VxhPr4
A total of three T8x8 threaded rods w/nuts (500mm, three - shorter - came with the printer): https://amzn.to/3kv8YbV
A total of three NEMA17 stepper drivers (two came with the printer): https://amzn.to/3CI0UcG
Ten 8mm rod clamps: https://amzn.to/3eAGsT9
Three 8mm pillow bearings: https://amzn.to/3s27rtT
Three 6mmx20T 8mm bore GT2 timing pulleys: https://amzn.to/3EN0SmF
Three 6mmx20T 5mm bore GT2 timing pulleys: https://amzn.to/3S88z9W
Three small (~200mm) GT2 cable loops: https://amzn.to/3TqpzJz
Three threaded steel balls: https://amzn.to/3ty026K
Three round countersunk magnets: https://amzn.to/3QkNjhu
(note that these claim to be '12mm' magnets but are actually 15mm. You want a 15mm OD magnet for this build)
Two 2020 extrusions: https://amzn.to/3TphZPu
And a bunch of m3/m4/m5 nuts, bolts, and boat nuts.
