<h2>BLV - AMS Riser for X1C V3.1 Final</h2><figure class="table"><table><tbody><tr><td style="background-color: hsl(0, 0%, 30%)"><h3><span style="color: hsl(0,0%,100%)">Introduction</span></h3></td></tr><tr><td><p>I&#39;m Ben Levi, and I want to talk to you about this BLV AMS Riser that I designed:<br>So, when the AMS is sitting on top of the printer, you can&#39;t really see what the printer is doing, and you can&#39;t even open the top glass cover to let some air in when you&#39;re printing High temp stuff. basically, something that will hold the AMS and free your Glass top cover will be a good solution for that. Now I&#39;ve seen some similar AMS risers before, but none of them really wowed me.. i think..</p><p>That&#39;s why I decided to come up with this sleek BLV AMS Riser design, easy to use, easy to put together, and reliable. I even added two handy drawers for your tools and stuff, a special shelf that can hold up to 4pcs Build Plates, built-in Dual LED strips. Sure, it took me a while, but I got it (almost..) done.</p><p>As some of you may know, I love contributing to this wonderful community, which is why I chose to share with you my project without any fee or money. Among other things, I&#39;ve also given you access to the original CAD files (F3D,STEP) so that you can easily make changes, add, and improve as you see fit. Please, if you publish a remix, make sure to link it to the original project as a remix so that others can benefit from your effort. I kindly request not to use the files for commercial purposes without explicit permission from me.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks,<br><strong>Ben Levi</strong></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/BenBLV" rel="nofollow noopener">If you want, buy me a beer </a>:)</p><p>&nbsp;</p></td></tr></tbody></table></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width: 58.95%"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/model/DSM00000000019535/design/2023-09-25_370cc55ef0c1d.png"></figure><h2>Main features</h2><p>These are just a few design features I&#39;ve planned.
