Core One+ upgrades

Sixteen community mods for chamber sealing, nozzle cleaning, tool storage and easier handling.

Once the Core One+ was built, I printed a set of community upgrades for it. None of them are my designs; the links go to the original makers on Printables, and the whole set is in my Printables collection.

Chamber and heat

Mod What it does
Top panel door A hinged hatch in the top lid, so I can reach in without removing the panel.
Magnetic top cover Quick-release cover with slots for the reverse Bowden PTFE tubes.
Corner blockers TPU plugs for the frame corners. They stop drafts and keep the chamber temperature steady.
LCD gap filler Seals the gap between the xLCD bezel and the front profiles.
Thermometer and hygrometer mount Magnetic holder for a small hygrometer, visible through the door.

Toolhead and maintenance

Mod What it does
Nozzle replacement tool Locks the heater block so a nozzle swap is a one-hand job.
Nozzle wiper and purge bin Bambu A1 style silicone wiper and a magnetic purge bin.
Nozzle wiper v2, left Moves the purge bin to the left rear corner.

Frame and protection

Mod What it does
Feet v2 Corner brackets that reuse the original Prusa rubber feet, no glue.
Z-axis dust protector Sliding covers for the Z rail cutouts that keep dust off the lead screws.

Handling and mounting

Mod What it does
Buddy3D camera ball mount Adjustable camera arm in the front corner cap.
OpenGrid side panel Replaces a side panel with an OpenGrid pattern for tool holders.
Power switch adapter Angles the power switch so it is easier to reach.
Easy ring knob Larger ring for the xLCD knob.
USB support and protector Guards the front USB stick against knocks.
Plus insert Coloured insert for the "+" on the spool holder cap.

Print notes

  • PETG or ASA for anything inside the chamber; PLA softens there. PLA is fine for outside parts.
  • 20 to 45% gyroid infill.
  • 3 to 4 walls for brackets that carry load.
