Good day everyone. I attended MRRF a couple weekends ago and I purchased a bunch of parts from Brian over at Trick Laser and I must say the quality is amazing. I'm currently building a Metal Max complete with all the fixings from Brian, and I am nearly complete but I hit a snag and I am seeking help from people who have assembled at least the frame and still kept it bowden.
I have a few choices when it comes to an extruder / hotend setup, these are my options.. Bondtech QR with an E3DV6 hotend or the new Titan Aero hotend which is a new AIO system.. It's quite fancy but it's so new there isn't any mounts for it yet, I do know MHackney is going to possibly design a mount for it so I could wait for that, but for the time being I did buy the Bondtech to use on it and I scoured the forum and found 2 mounts from people on their GitHub but I am not terribly fond of the way which they mount, so I was wondering if someone could show me their setup. I know lots of people use them on the wooden frame they got with their printer but sadly that mount won't work for me.
IEC320 C14 connector, there is a few ways to go about this but I was looking for a good solution, printing and designing a bracket isn't too difficult as MHackney sent me a quick sketch of one he mocked up but again, just looking for some photo's to see what others have done.
It's hard to imagine that Brian has a solution for 99% of the parts for the Rostock series, but no mounts for any extruder or the power plug. I did reach out to him on the contact page to see how he did it on his but no word from him yet.
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to seeing your photo's!
