*******An updated ver will be added in next few days*******

Changes will be made to top part only, with thicker motor mount and added hinged mount for a 40mm motor cooling fan with block supports.


Direct Drive Chimera or Cyclops mount with radial fan part cooling

Use 5 mm threads plastic screws to assemble bottom and top together ( I used screws that I recycled from taking apart old TV's they are the black screws that normally hold the back covers).Use either M5 or 10/24 screws to attach the hotend mount to X carriage there is no nut trap as the screws bite firmly in to the plastic. if you have a problem I could add one.

I design to use with MK8 direct drive motors cold end found here http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:111711.

My E step at 1/16 micro stepping is 157.01

The X carriage and radial fan duct was made by Prusa research, I only modified it to fit my screws. ***UPDATES***
