Support for mounting a Wade-like extruder on an Ultimaker

The original "Ultimaker Wade's Accessible Bowden Bracket" by stcredzero is available at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:14822. I recreated it in OpenSCAD for easier modification, adding a larger hole for the pneufit tube adapter and recesses in the M4 extruder attach holes to use shorter bolts. To build the OpenSCAD file from the original STL, I used https://github.com/daid/OpenSCAD-polygon-editor. For printing, use little infill (15%) as the part is massive and its shell gives it enough strength. Attach a pneufit coupling extruder for the bowden tube like those from reprapworld, conrad, or Norgren. Assemble everything, recalibrate firmware (E-Steps, possibly inverting extruder motor direction), and enjoy slipless extrusion!
