    Would be possible to retrofit the bed leveling feature onto my kickstart version?
    would be a kit for that?
    If so how much would cost???

    I would check with patMC he has pic of his setup ROBO and he put it on a thingiverse it is a simple part to make you may be able to make it yourself and a couple of pieces of hardware but I am pretty sure patmc did a whole post on it.

    From what I can tell the only difference is 2 printed parts, switching from a nut to a coupling, and an extra switch. You should be able to run it on any printer once they launch it.

    I'm trying to make my own version based on the design principle they came up with.

    I asked Jerry about it, he said they do not have kits available yet but they will most likely stock them if/when they are able. No date set on that yet and it could be sometime out.

    I have also asked if they would post the the files and docs so we could print/install our own. Still waiting to hear back on that.
