Ultimate MakerGear Extruder Mount upgrade

thingiverse

Print out the MakerGear Extruder Mount and bearing block replacement parts in ABS material. This modification allows your Prusa Mendel printer's motor to be rotated 90 degrees, maximizing its height. Replace the original extruder mount with these new ones to enhance filament flow by adjusting tension on two bolts instead of four. Use a jig for easy filament changes in the future. Don't forget to download the MakerGear Extruder Mount Alternative from Thingiverse for use with the Openscad file. Note that Yoda, seen in the photo, is not included but can also be found on Thingiverse. (Source: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:40192)
