This NightOwl kit includes an ERB 2.0 and cutter components (the optional components listed below). This is a DIY kit, you will need to print the 3D printed parts.

NightOwl: Integrated Dual Spool Filament Switching System

NightOwl is an enclosure that integrates multiple projects’ technologies into a dual-spool filament switching system.Summary

The goal of the NightOwl enclosure is to create a simple, universal filament switching solution that accommodates two primary usage styles: standalone units with integrated rewinding filament spool holders, or backpack-style units mountable to a printer, fed from separate spool rollers. A secondary objective was to design a mostly self-contained setup requiring only a 24V power supply and either a USB or CAN connection.

To achieve this, NightOwl integrates the following projects:

• Hartk’sDual Nightwatch: a compact dual Bowden extruder based on the Voron Nightwatch

• Hartk’s Bowden Y-Splitter
• Filamentalist Rewinder – 80mm Axle from the Enraged Rabbit Community
• Fysetc ERB 2.0 MCU
• ArmoredTurtle’s TurtleNeck syncing toolhead buffer

Besides these parts you’ll also want an extruder that has both a toolhead and an entry sensor. Some options for this are:

• Clockwork 2
• WristWatch G2
