Ender 5 Mercury One.1 10mmrod mod (discuss.tchncs.de)

This is a customized version of the Ender 5 Mercury One.1 mod. I had two 10mm rods lying around that would fit the X axis and wanted to use the MGN12 rail for a custom CNC project instead. Please check the Printables link for more information as well as a FreeCAD file.

I also think that having the hotend centered between two rails may allow for a larger reachable print area at some point. Later I want to remake the way the heated bed is mounted so that a larger bed can be used while still having the same Ender 5 footprint.

I don't think this should still be called an Ender 5 and this point. Perhaps a Frankender will do.

Got a Link for the air ducts and would they fit an Ender 5 Plus?

The fan ducts are in the Printables link. They are designed for the rod system so if you can find 10mm rods long enough for an Ender 5 Plus it should work.
