Phaetus / D3vil Design DXC extruder adapter to Sherpa mini or Orbiter2 mounting pattern

No print support!

https://www.phaetus.com/en-us/products/dxc-extruder

The motor is not included as it's meant to be a drop in replacement for the Creality K1 extruder. Needs to be 12t gear (the common motor for Sherpa and Orbiter uses 8t/10t) 
Got mine on amazon, rated 1amp Amazon
Fystec also sells a 12t for the K1, can be found on amazon/aliexpress but rated only 0.8amp, so would pick the 1amp instead, to match the original motor.

Use M3x8 or M3x6 to secure the mount first

Then slide in the extruder + PTFE 
and three M3x4 screws for the sides, bottom screw can also fit M3x6, but top right side has to be a M3x4.

You need to press down on the extruder as you secure the side screws, but that means it will be very tight and secured!

Klipper values:

rotation_distance: 6.8~6.9 
but may actually be around 6.9322~6.936, two calibration result from two different units 

run_current: 0.5~0.6
keep an eye on the motor temp

The wire order on the motor I got needs the middle two wires to be swapped,
motor -> Black/Red/Orange/Blue --- cross middle two -> Black/Orange/Red/Blue
check continuity with a multimeter, Black & Orange should show continuity (beep)
same with Red & Blue
That is the common wire order on a creality/BTT board - tested that way on an BTT octopus pro board.
BUT may not always be the case so always double check with the board (especially CAN type or LDO board, they seem to make thing different)
