Sapphire Pro - NF-Mellow / Mosquito - BLTouch Mount

thingiverse

I'm mounting a Mosquito clone on the Sapphire Pro with a quick effort. The fan duct employs two 5015 blowers, which are pressed snugly onto the duct and secured with a dab of adhesive. The hot end mount is designed for the e3d style groove mount adapter included with the Mosquito clones. I separated the clamp band from the body in my slicer (slic3r) for convenience. Note that the mount attaches to the backside of the carriage, and the bl-touch mount is optional, simply sitting between the heads of the mounting bolts on the hot end mount. The only additional hardware needed is two long M4 bolts, 16mm in length, to connect the mount to the steel carriage on the Sapphire Pro. Tasks remain: I've restricted travel on my machine due to the position of the part cooling fan interfering with the motion steppers at extreme travels. I don't generally print things that fill the bed. The hot end mount could use stiffening, particularly in the Y-axis. The hole sizes on the mount require tweaking; I undersized them all slightly and drilled them out to size. (I'm still using my first print of these components, with no tweaks applied.) ## Changes Log ### 1.0 - Initiated ### 1.1 - Enhanced hotend mount - Tightened groove mount tolerances
