Increase Z Axis Length, Felix 3.0

I am thinking about enlarging the print volume of my Felix 3.0. It seems relatively simple to replace the Z axis extrusions, and the Z axis rail with longer ones. If I can’t find a longer Z axis rail, I think a second one could be added to the first. I also wonder if a print bed with a longer Y axis could be acquired.

Before I invest in the hardware, I would appreciate some feedback. Has anyone tried this?

Thanks.

It’s not good idea. I have trouble with standard size felix 2.0 printer - “wobbling”

It’s coused by table shaking. Then as higher is model as bigger distortion I have.

Increasing Z axis with leaving the rest of the construction similar to standard is meaningless, IMHO.
