The @bondtechab and @Prusa3D INDX Founders Edition kit has arrived (currently supplied by Prusa, this is subject to change, reasoning below), so let's get this thing installed on a CORE One + and try it out!
The INDX is something we have waited a long time for, over a year now since first seeing it out at Bondtech in Sweden: youtu.be/V6kxDmYTyB8
With a stream showing it off at Bondtech as well: youtube.com/live/AGX628YKYok
But not without some controversy from Prusa themselves, explained in this video (timestamped): youtu.be/8d4wTuMs8b4?si=CJ6vnB7NNspQCD3n&t=335 This is still an ongoing issue though and will be updated within the comments of that video as it occurs.
If you do want to get yourself an official Prusa Edition, we would appreciate support via our affiliate link: https://b.link/3DM_Prusa
Chapters:
00:00:00 - Introduction and Project Overview: Getting started and explaining the Index Founders Edition build.
00:04:30 - PTFE Holder Installation: Starting the assembly with the left and right PTFE holders.
00:24:50 - Assembling Bowden Sleeves & Collets: A detailed look at the hyper-specific sleeves and collets.

02:43:15 - Spool Holder Assembly: Putting together the dense injection-molded puck holders.
