This is a redesign of the Space Invaders Carriage for Eustathios printers. The main reason of the redesign was to make it smaller to increase usable build volume. Here's some of the changes:
Like the previous version, it is convertible between a bowden configuration and a direct drive configuration using a Printrbot Gear Head extruder. But, instead of switching, I opted for a flying extruder with a short bowden tube (more about that setup in this post). The hotend is mounted quite a bit higher than with the stock Eustathios build, so the bed probably won't reach the nozzle with the standard configuration (should work with the ballscrew bed mounts).
