Thanks for reading my question ;-)
I have started my build based on the Eclips3d and I have a question :-) I have a 400mm leadscrew :-) and this provides me with a challenge, I have a lot of extra height, I want to use the maximal height as print height.
Doing this makes it hard to find out where I should place the 2 topbars.
SO can someone help me, by measuring?
When the bed is in print start (max height) what is distance from table to underside of B5 Z-axis plate?
and also from table, to underside of the middle extruded alu2020?
When I know the difference between these 2, I can figure out, what height mine should be placed :-)
Thanks in advance!

just follow the build guide, max size is already in the design.

Yes, but I have build the printer a lot higher, that is why I need it ;-)

Welp without measuring I could tell you that the stock leadscrew which is 290mm long will have about 50-60mm left at the top when at the full zero position. So with your 400mm leadscrew and maxing out z height, you could probably get a z build area of about 350mm, so with that being a 150mm increase you would want to base your design around the veritcal extrusions being about 550mm long! Everything else should fit from there as long as you place those top extrusions about that high up! I can get exact measurements tomorrow if needed!

Thanks, but my vertical extrusions is 730 long. we are making an closed printer, with cables from the extruder and filament on the top part. BUT perhaps I can get it with your numbers :-)
My Maximum movement on Z is 370mm the motor coupler is bottom stop and I have 500mm rods. that is why I was insecure of measurement. the real number I needed, was how far down the extruder is below the middle extruded alu, on your printer. that can tell me the hight of my alu, since I have a bed MAX hight at 500mm. with heatbed and glas. so I should have the lover extruded alu, at around 540?
Thanks again, looking so much forward to getting this printer running :-)
