Summary

So when my Prusa kit's crappy hot end went, I finally upgraded to an E3D Lite6. Little did I know that even though the bracket my kit used to hold it all together was nonstandard, it looked almost like a regular groove mount. I made my mount for my printer; hopefully, it's enough basis for others to mount an E3D on their cheap and sketchy Prusa kits!

Print Settings

Printer brand:

RepRap

Printer:

Prusa i3

Rafts:

Doesn't Matter

Supports:

Yes

Resolution:

I used .3, for time's sake

Infill:

Needs to be sturdy, so don't be stingy!

Notes:

The tolerances are a bit tight on the groove mount; you might need to play with the SketchUp file if your printer isn't dimensionally accurate.
