E3D V6 hotend mount for Geeetech A10 by the_chris_davies

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

This is a quick print to replace the stock hotend on the Geeetech A10 (and probably A10M, as it has the same hotend mount).
Hardware
For hardware, this print uses:
-2 M3x35mm screws
-2 M3x16mm screws
-4 M3 nuts
The 35mm screws may have to be trimmed flush with the print.
assembly
To assemble, first place the print on the E3D extruder with the holes for the nuts facing down, then insert the two long screws to hold the assembly together. Once it is secure on the hotend, insert the nuts on the bottom of the print. it can then be attached to the carriage in place of the standard hot end.
WARNING:
The E3D hotend extends down past the stock hotend by a large abound (around a half cm). you will have to move your bed sensor (I recommend using one with this print) and adjust your Z offset. You will also need a new air duct, because the old one is too short for the E3D.
Update: I have included a modified version of this stock fan duct, which has been elongated to the right dimensions.
