This is a mount for Mutley's excellent flex3drive (version 3) found at https://flex3drive.com/flex3drive/.
The flex3drive allows you to keep the stepper motor mounted in the same location as stock but gives you a direct drive extruder; it does this by driving the extruder itself with a flexible cable. Excellent for all types of filament, but it is particularly good for flexible filaments.
I expect Mutley will probably eventually make a "prettier" mount, but this one works and is on my printer working quite well.
EDIT Jul 20, 2017: It came to my attention that the arms are just a tad bit shorter than is a comfortable fit, so I uploaded a new version with longer arms. I left the old one in case anyone prefers to try that one.
