How to upgrade lead screws CTC Prusa i3 MK2

In this Video Upgrading Lead screw CTC Prusa i3, I show that this printer can be upgraded with 2mm Pitch T8 lead screws. This Prusa Clone comes with a treaded rob with a lead of only 1 mm, this is not an official lead screw, but a screw rod. But to get quality prints of this Chinese 3D printer I do this upgrade. There will be a second video because the lead screw upgrade needs also be changed in the firmware. On my CTC Prusa i3 MK2 3D printer, I could not store my settings. And for the sake of this video, I'm going to post another video about how to upgrade your firmware.
