<p>On Anet A8 with <strong>SKR V1.1 32 bit board</strong> my intention is to use <strong>3 extruders</strong> on my Anet A8, <em>1+2 via Y-piece on single nozzle</em>, 3rd Extruder with 2nd nozzle. Need another stepper to connect to SKR V1.1 (10 additional pins are available), extruder 1 + 2 go to single nozzle/heater via a Y-piece, 3rd extruder is on its own with own nozzle/heater. How to modify <strong>latest Marlin</strong> for this?? Please, all help appreciated, thanks a lot.</p>
