Description
I created a quick connector for my Almost Direct Drive extruder for the E3D toolchanger.
It uses:
WMYCONGCONG Waterproof Electrical Wire Cable 12 Pin Way Connector Plug
Use at your own risk - this involves crimping new connectors for your hotend and making sure wires are secure enough that you do not cause a short with movement. You must use properly rated wires.A flaw in this design or your wiring could cause a fire or dangerous electric shock.
I highly recommend M3 brass inserts for top connector to the almost direct drive base.
This Thing has a greatly improved main Almost Direct Drive part that significantly more stiff and stable. See the original thing for more information on Almost Direct Drive for E3D ToolChanger.
2/10/20 - added AlmostDirectDriveTopBase12pinTCv2 which provides tighter clearances for securing the 12 pin connector for those who need it.
2/11/20 - added ADDcablestrainTCv2 offering a better cable stress relief design than original Almost Direct Drive version.
