I used the Mini-Me on my E3 v2 for a good while prior to going to a Sprite Pro.  When I tried it on my Ender 6, not only did it not fit particularly well on the carriage (bolts in the way) but it was extremely fragile when made out of ASA or PC (wanted to upgrade to all-metal hotend and print hotter than would be reasonable with PLA).  I decided that it was just the thinness of the walls that was the problem so I increased the housing thickness by 1mm all the way around.  I also chose the remix with connected (and adjustable) mounts for additional durability.  I put a fillet on the outside edge of the mount holes to avoid the Ender 6 carriage bolts that are pretty close there.

I printed my test run out of Inland Tough PC and it is SIGNIFICANTLY more durable than previous versions without being much heavier.  Hopefully this helps some folks out.

Yes, it's a terrible picture, I'll try to take some better ones (no promises).
