dual e3d v6 mount

thingiverse

I made this mount to fit dual E3D V6 clone hotends onto my cheap CTC Prusa I3 Pro B using this X-carriage: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1329854 by Sectorix. I had been using https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:617691 by Triggerr and loved it, so thought id try and remix. The cover has a hole for a 12mm inductive sensor (it's a tight squeeze but does fit), two 5mm LED lights, and a 40mm fan. I pointed the ducts up to reduce drafts onto the prints. This is still a work in progress, Im currently testing it and so far the only issue is clearance on the left front bed bolt since I run a 3mm aluminum heat bed; I just removed the bolt. I made this on Tinkercad and im a NOOB to designing but did my best. The four mount holes are for 4mm nuts (using 4mm i couldn't move it around), so once installed using 3mm bolts and nuts, the mount can be leveled a bit; you shouldn't need a Z-offset. My X-offset is -29.4mm (my #1 is on the right). I still use the GT2560 clone board that came with my printer which has the atmega1280 chip (works well except for the lack of memory). To get dual extruder settings to fit and bed leveling to fit in the memory, I had to shut off PID temp and go with Bang-Bang heating.
