Description
These parts can be used to mount a Nimble V2 or a Sidewinder V2 on a CR-10 type print head.
The Nimble or Sidewinder V2 mounts on the standard printhead, no need to change hot end or anything else. Simply unscrew the bowden connector, mount the block and use the screw to tighten it to the hot end. Then mount the Nimble or Sidewinder. We wrote a manual for the installation. You can find it here That manual is for the Sidewinder V1 but most of the steps are the same for the V2 Family. It will be clear when you mount it.
The parts are not designed to be printed with FDM, but you can give it a try. They can also be purchased from our Shapeways shop. This gives you SLS printed nylon parts that are really strong.
If you want to have more flexibility in mounting fans, different hot ends or sensors, have a look at our complete system with different mounts for V6, Mosquito and MicroSwiss. Also included are fan duct for 5015 fans. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3925473
####Changelog:
The STL models are checked and optimised. The parts that need a different orientation to print properly are rotated to the preferred printing position.
With an installed weight of less than 27 grams on your carriage/effector the Zesty Nimble is the smallest and lightest extruder you can buy, it has ample torque and can be mounted in multiple orientations.
The Nimble is available from Zesty Technology.
