E3d V6 hotend to stock Geeetech Prusa i3 X carriage adapter

thingiverse

Hi, I was running a bowden setup with a V6 clone hotend but after some trouble I had to switch back to the stock extruder setup. Unhappy with the situation and unable to find a simple solution online, I decided to design this adapter to run the V6 hotend clone in the stock carriage of my Geeetech Prusa i3 X printer. There are two versions available: one with the hole centered and another with the stock offset. I highly recommend printing the pieces (the large one vertically and the small one flat) with the v6 fitment facing up for optimal results. The part 3 is optional, but it's necessary to center the ptfe tube. It's essential to run a ptfe tube the full length from nozzle to carriage to avoid clogging the extruder. If the ptfe is shorter, it will get pushed up by the flow and cause problems. These pieces went straight from printing to being mounted and used without any post-printing process.
