A rather minimalistic hot end mount for using an E3D V6 (J-head) hot end on a CTC Prusa i3 Pro B with the original extruder (some Stepstruder mk7-ish clone). It has an extension in the front for attaching an optional radial fan.
This mount will probably work with any similar extruder on any Prusa i3, as the carriage mount scew holes have the standard 30mm spacing. I'm unsure of how exactly the CTC extruder compares to a real mk7 in terms of where the filament hole is though - let me know in the comments if you try it on another extruder!
Screws: all M3. Use 16mm screws to mount the stepper motor, and any screws 20mm or above (+ nuts) to mount the hot end.
(I also guess the "real" E3D V6 has a fitting at the top for a PTFE tube even for the direct drive models. Maybe I'll make an update with an extra STL file that has room for this.)
