Phantom Direct Drive Bowden Extruder

thingiverse

Hey Everyone! It's taken an eternity, but I've finally finished my brand-new direct drive bowden extruder, which I'm proudly calling the "Phantom Extruder." Its incredible strength is a testament to its compact design and unassuming appearance. I aimed to create an extruder that was not only small but also incredibly easy to work on, with effortless filament swapping - and this one delivers! The MK8 drive gear provides ample power, making it perfect for bowden applications. If you have any questions or need a specific file type, feel free to comment below. Thanks for taking a look! Here's the link to my video showcasing the extruder: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B53JddDr31A UPDATE 8/13/2015: I've just released a new direct drive version featuring an integrated mount within the body (EXTRUDER BODY WITH MOUNT). This means you no longer need a spacer or those pesky 35mm M3 screws - simply use 30mm screws instead! Additionally, I've added a direct drive version designed to accommodate an extruder with a built-in clamp for secure holding (EXTRUDER HOTENDBODY and EXTRUDER HOTEND BODY-HOTEND CLAMP). It's specifically engineered for the E3D V6. To top it off, I've uploaded STEP files, allowing you to customize every aspect to your heart's content!
