Strong Greg's Extruder V2

Description

**Updates** ***April 4Th 2015***: Remove The Hole For Hex Nut Because The Nut Was Breaking The Part When It Twisted **Summary:** The Great Part With This Extruder Is That The Filament Is Properly Guided To The Hobbed Bolt. I Was Fed Up With Standard Greg'S Extruder Where I Nearly Needed To Remove The Pressure Screws Every Time I Wanted To Change My Filament. With This System That Question Is Obsolete As The Filament Is Always Properly Guided From The Dedicated Top Hole, To The Bottom Hole. The Hobbed Bolt Will Always Get Some Grips To The Filament Even If The Teeth As Slightly On The Side Of The Filament. This Extruder Also Reduced The Different "Clicks" You Can Have With Standard Extruder. Plus The Stepper Motor Will Find It Easy To Push The Filament As Somehow The Force Needed To Push The Filament Is Reduced. Try It For Yourself And You Will Enjoy It! **Changes** I Made Some Changes From The Original Part Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:456025. -I Took The 3Mm Filament Version. -I Added A Hole For Jhead Hot End At The Bottom And 2 Side Hole For Support Screws. -I Added Some Supports So That You Don'T Need To Generate Any Support. The Generated Support Will Bother You With The Inside Of The Part Anyway. The Newly Added Support Can Be Removed Easily (See In Orange The Parts To Remove On The Pictures) -I Increased The Hole Dedicated To Stepper Motor Central Axis. You Could Have Troubles With The Small Gear Wheels With The Side Screw Hitting The Edges Of This Hole.
