2.0.0 - 2.0.1¶
Compatibility: EVA >= 2.4.0
2.0.1 changes
The only change (an important one) in 2.0.1 was fixing the belt paths that were not perfect in 2.0.0.
An MGN12 rail is ~60% of the weight of an MGN15 rail. EVA is dropping support for MGN15 in version 2.4.0 for that and other reasons like easier maintenance.
To avoid leaving V-Core Pro users locked out from future EVA updates this final version of Easy Mod has been prepared.
Two variants¶
To make the transition to MGN12 easier and hopefuly cheaper, two variants of the xy_joiner parts are provided. Both variants now has an M5 screw that threads into the ends of the extrusions for an easier and more robust installation.
Variant A¶
This one is made in the hope that a 400mm rail will be more easily available than a 420mm one, it does however require a new 2020 extrusion.

Variant B¶

XY Corner Idlers¶
These have not changed from the previous version, and are still compatible.
Features¶
Optional M5x20mm screws were added to where the 2020 extrusion ends meet the xy_joiners
The whole design is based of the V-Core 3 design (V-Core 3 ideas started with Easy Mod so it has come full circle now 
). With that we have the single M5 bolt on the top of the part, much like on V-Core 3 but due do the differences between the two printers and the B variant, 100% compatibility was not achieved.
