Stealth Fork (Beta)

The one where Micron R1 & Salad Fork had a baby...

Rendering of a StealthFork

About

Stealth Fork is an experimental design that blends the awesome aesthetic and compact form factor of the Micron+ R1 with the fixed gantry of the Salad Fork. If you’ve ever wanted a machine that blends the best of both, this is it.

Additional Features Ported from Micron:

  • Bottom panel as stock
  • Dual shear add-ons for A/B motors
  • Pinned variants of A/B & X/Y as stock
  • Optimised belt path
  • Larger feet for more stability
  • 3.5-inch / 4.3-inch display mounts as stock
  • 2x Keystone mounts in rear skirt
  • Stealthy aesthetics

Note: This repository is a work in progress. I'll be updating it as things evolve. The goal is a seamless build experience, without compromising the high standards of either parent design.


Current Status

  • STLs Uploaded – All required STLs for a 180mm or 160mm build are included.
  • 🔜 CAD Files Coming Soon – Once files are cleaned up, they'll be added (Skirt CAD files available).
  • ⚠️ Beta Release – While all parts have been printed successfully, a full assembly is still pending. Expect minor refinements.

Required Parts from Micron R1

Some parts are not included in this repo and need to be pulled directly from the Micron R1 Repo to convert your current Salad Fork.
