Assembling the Anet A8

Initially I ordered the Anet A8 on Banggood, but it got stopped by the customs office. It did not meet the necessary conditions for import and got sent back to china. It took me 2 weeks to get my money back as well… That was not really a good experience.

The second time i ordered it from ebay – that arrived in just 3 days. All the security upgrades I planned before first use arrived long before that since I waited on the first ordered for quite some time already.

Even before I started up the printer the first time I already upgraded the power supply and added a mosfet for the heatbed. That should rule out the major risks that come with using this cheap chinese knock off.
