I really liked the new MK3 extruder head. Soooo, I decided to reverse engineer the MK3 extruder and x-carriage assembly to make it fit the MK2/MK2s. My main motivation was the clean mounting of the Noctau fan and the new nozzle blower.
Things I changed from the MK3 assembly:
1) Moved the motor mounting screws over a bit to accommodate the existing filament driver.
2) Created holes to mount the idler and made space for it. Had to modify the idler a bit to fit properly inside the new extruder body.
3) Had to make quite a bit of changes on the x-carriage to make it work with the existing wires and the end stop. I removed some things and added some holes for the zip ties. I didn't want to use the back plate as it was easier to just get rid of it. TBH, it's unnecessary to create an extra piece just to hold your wires up in the air nicely...
4) Expanded the PINDA probe hole to fit the MK2s probe.
5) Removed the filament sensor mounting.
6) Modified a bunch of other small stuff along the way to make the whole thing work.
EDIT1: Updated the idler. Forgot to cut the hole all the way through.
EDIT2: Updated the x-carriage to fit with the MK3 x-carriage cover. Much better cable management, I take back what I said above.
EDIT3: Added all the required files
EDIT4: Added STEP files
