I'm not going to have any time to look at this for a few days, but I can send you the blender file if you like. IIRC I didn't put it on thingiverse as it needs some explanation.Moosteronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11876161230067008258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8371051.post-70485085160849250772015-10-02T19:23:06.393-07:002015-10-02T19:23:06.393-07:00Of course, now I think about it the collet would b...Of course, now I think about it the collet would be in the same position on either design as its set by where the screws on the motor are. Maybe we have different versions of the extruder mechanism? Is your collet pressed down into the top of the E3D? That's how I have mine (which might not strictly be correct). It is quite a close fit even so.Moosteronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11876161230067008258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8371051.post-24561824662499639922015-10-02T19:20:09.838-07:002015-10-02T19:20:09.838-07:00Here's pictures of what mine looks like.

The second version of the block is a bit taller than the first one, and it has a small slot in it to allow for the disc on the front of the motor. It was a bit difficult fitting it on even so. If you are using that, you could try to the original version as it doesn't have the same issue and also has a lot more clearance between it and the bottom of the extruder. Also check how much the collet stick up - maybe that's what is interfering.

No video, but the instructions are quite clear.<br /><br />The only suggestion I would make is to tighten the nozzle a bit. The instructions are slightly vague on this point and make it sound like you should not tighten it very much. I found this led to a bit of leakage on the top of the heatbreak, which was fixed when I tightened it more.<br /><br />As you might see, I have a second version of the mount which I think gives a it more support than the first one. You might need to file out the holes for the M3 bolts a little.<br />Moosteronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11876161230067008258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8371051.post-63521420662612276642015-09-27T19:05:27.836-07:002015-09-27T19:05:27.836-07:00I ordered a lite6 and will probably be stealing yo...I ordered a lite6 and will probably be stealing your mount so thanks for posting it. Yours is much simpler than the others where you are mostly making a new extruder. <br /><br />I also ordered a e3d hobgoblin gear not sure if it will fit or be an improvement but I was compelled to buy it. <br /><br />Have you found a assembly video for the lite6?I have watched a couple for the v6 which should be pretty similar but they don't show inserting the liner and that sounds like it can be a problem if you don't do it right. msaegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07423455720450091124noreply@blogger.com
