This is a Controller, Power Supply, and LCD mount upgrade for the ANET A8 Plus.
Power supply conversion to a Mean Well LRS-350-24
Main Board Conversion to SKR 1.4 w/ TMC2209 Drivers
UI upgrade to BTT TFT24
Additions:
Raspberry Pi for Octopi Control
VC288 Volt/Amp Meter for the PS
Dual HW-411 DC-DC Converters for 5V (Pi) and 12V+/- (Noctua or other quiet fans)
120MM fan mount on the controller.
Removal of the 90 degree brackets on the back of the Z axis posts are required. I have seen no degradation in performance.
Screws required for assembly:
16x M3x6mm
4x M4x8mm
Appropriate T nuts for the TFT mount.
This project is also on GitHub with Marlin files and some more instructions:

The A8+ is a great printer as a stock build. These are just some mods I was able to make.
Edit: The published controller mount part is a bit taller and has more "vent ports" (intended for use as zip tie mounts for cable management)
If anyone wants a different fan size, let me know and I will add additional parts.
