Description

Hi all,

This is a hotend mount I have made up for the BLV MGN Cube printer to allow the use of a Zesty Nimble V1 (looking at modifying for V2) extruder with a Slice Engineering Mosquito hotend. Please note, I have made this mount to use slightly shorter than standard screws (M3 x 35) to mount the Nimble. If normal length screws are used, they will collide with the Mosquito cooling fan.

UPDATE - 5/02/2020 - New version of bottom carriage with dc42 mount has been added. Adjusted slot size for bigger micro switches. Please advise if this has any further issues. Clearance is now 6.77mm, which should allow for easier fitment than a flush 6.54mm would.

UPDATE - 5/01/2020 - New version of 5015ProtoPartCoolerMosqMain.stl uploaded. Multiple improvements made to positioning. This one will fit with the newest mount. Also added air guides/baffles. CONFIRMED - New fan mouint is much better, I have to run it between 30-50% when printing PETG.

UPDATE - 1/1/2020 - Made some improvements to fitment of the fan and mount. I believe the older mount piece may be better as long as 60% or higher infill is used. With 40% infill I found it drooped a little more than desired.

UPDATE - 30/12/2019 - Uploaded new two piece fan mount for part cooling with a 5015 fan. I will possibly upload a tweaked version later. For now this looks like it will work but needs a reasonably high infill (I printed at 50% initially and found it droops at 50%).

UPDATE - 25/12/2019 - Finally had a chance to print and test fit part cooling fan, alignment was off for cooling and hits nozzle. Now adjusted in the new (25/12/2019) version. This is still an alpha and yet to be tested.

UPDATE - 15/12/2019 - Uploaded new versions of dc42 x-carriage bottom mount and part cooler fan mount for 5015 fan. Please let me know if there are any remaining clearance issues.

UPDATE - 28/11/2019 - Created modular version, provided modular mounts for part cooling fan (5015 fan required), bltouch and DC42 IR sensor (via different bottom X-carriage piece).

UPDATE - 27/11/2019 - Found an alignment issue, this has been potentially fixed on the new bltouch version. I am yet to check and rectify on the others. Screw holes have been added to mount a part cooling fan. Still working on that part.

Added mount for dc42 IR sensor. Please advise if this position causes any issues. The plug on the sensor will need to face away from the hotend for clearance....unsure if this will fit yet.
Offset for DC42 IR:
0 on x axis.
15.27 on the y axis.

Added mount with BLTouch mount option.
Offset for BLTouch:
0.024 on Y
-21.847 on X

UPDATE I have uploaded a new version with an extra 3mm clearance between the heatsink and backplate for better airflow. Please advise if you find more clearance needed or if this requires any more tuning.

With the exception to the basic adaptor piece from Zesty Technology, and the x-carriage bottom piece (DC42 IR mount hack), the rest of this model has been made for scratch, so if you try this, please comment if there are any issues or you have any improvement ideas.

I believe 0.2mm layer height would be best for this model, some supports will be required. Please use Petg or ABS, basically anything that can handle heat as well as if not better than Petg.
