Monoprice Mini Delta E3D Hotend Adapter
Description
Revision: The Screw Holes That Hold The Front To The Effector Were A Little Large And My M3 Screws Weren'T Getting A Good Bite. I'Ve Shrunk The Holes Some, So That Should Fix Any Problems Attaching It. I Wanted To Make A Mount For A E3D Style Hotend While Still Using As Much Of The Stock Effector Plate As Possible. I Also Wanted A Separate Cooling Fan, One That I Could Turn On And Off, When Printing With Temperature Sensitive Filament. This Is The Result. Took Longer Than I Had Hoped, Though That Largely Reflects My Weak Fusion 360 Skills More Than Any Difficulty Associated With The Project. Assembly Is Fairly Straightforward. Uses One 30Mm Fan, One 40Mm Fan, Two 16-18Mm M3 Screws And Nuts To Attach The Front And Back Together, Assorted M3 Screws For The Fans, And 3 Low Profile M3 To Attach The Front Mount To The Effector Plate (I'D Recommend Reusing The Ones From The Stock Hotend Mount). It Uses A V6 Style Heatsink, Though The Aluminum Heating Block It'S Designed Around Is A V5, Which I Recycled From The Stock Hotend. I Don'T Think You'Ll Be Able To Fit A V6 Aluminum Block Under The Mount, But To Be Honest I Didn'T Try, So It May Be Possible If You'Re Determined. Future Versions May Include A Fang-Style Cooling Fan, Once I Get Better At Fusion 360. Let Me Know What You Think Of It In The Comments Section. I'Ve Included The Files For Front, Back And A Blank Back If You Would Like To Experiment With Alternate Fans.
