The second part to my Bowden setup. By mounting the majority of the E3D hotend above the x carriage it gives more z clearance as the hotend can protrude thru the two top horizontal threaded rod supports. This mount design has a built in fan shroud and mounting holes for the fan that comes with the E3D hotend and mounts to the existing X carriage which might make it available to use on different carriages.
Will you be posting the files? I like the setup
Yes I will. I’ve never posted to thingiverse so I’ll need to get that set up first. I’ll let you know when it’s up.
Cool thanks!
@Mike_Smith , you have officially been assimilated.
I did the PID autotune at the recommendation of @ThantiK and it made a difference in the quality of the prints. Other than that I didn’t change anything else except the thermistor setting and Z home.
@Bob_Rosania I just uploaded all three parts to thingiverse. Thing # 154938. You might want to give it some time. I just searched for that number to make sure it’s showing right and it didn’t show up yet. I will double check it tomorrow to make sure everything is there.
It’s there, under the newest section; I would probably add E3D to the title somewhere, since the dimensions for this thing are pretty much suited to only this hot end.
Hey! I suggested you do PID auto tune. Bloody @ThantiK , stealing other peoples props.
In reading subsequent posts, @ThantiK also gave PID autotune advice so I suppose I have to retract my previous accusation.
@Mike_Smith does this also stabilise the hot end? They are long enough that even when well attached they can flex a bit.
@Tim_Rastall , lol I gave the PID advice days before he even pumped out his first print; I occasionally help in-person at a hackerspace we both frequent. But I suggested he ask some questions here to get quicker responses, etc.
@ThantiK well, if you’red going to cheat and help people in meat space then, so be it 
@Tim_Rastall I had the same thought about stability, I’ve always had concerns about cantilevering the hot ends. My hotend, as kludgy as it is, is supported on top and bottom and is incredible stable, but a rural pain to remove. @Mike_Smith pleas let us know if you see any stability improvement in your prints
I’m pretty sure it will be stable as it is clamped at the top and the fan shroud is a tight fit around the heat sink so it is getting support too and bottom. But I will let you know if I see a decrease or increase in print quality.
