Mk3 extruder to Ender 3

thingiverse

I have been using my Ender 3 for quite some time now and was on the hunt for a fresh extruder design. I needed something that would both look great and offer direct drive functionality. The Prusa extruder design really caught my eye, so I went ahead and found two models on Thingiverse that showcased this style: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3639876 and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3525735. Although these designs were top-notch, I wanted something that could be mounted directly onto a linear rail, such as the Mgn12h, without any issues regardless of whether it was on my Ender 3 or not. With this in mind, I decided to take matters into my own hands and started designing from scratch. After some hard work, I came up with a new design that I am really proud of. The actual extruder parts can be found at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3226689, and everything you need is included in the zip file. If any part of my design doesn't quite work as expected, please let me know. Thank you! I hope you have a great time printing!
