About this 3D model
I created this thing to simplify mounting an e3d hotend to my ord hadron. Rather than drill holes and inevitably get the placement wrong, I decided to integrate the x carriage with the hotend mount. This configuration ensures perfect perpendicular alignment of the hotend to the X extrusion. I recommend that anyone printing this should go ahead and splurge on new eccentric spacers (the spacers with the extended boss) - the extended boss is thick enough to go all he way through the plastic carriage (specifically designed for this type of carriage): https://www.inventables.com/technologies/eccentric-spacer Added v5 versions (single and dual) with mount hole spacing to match this new GT2 belt clamp thing: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:184634/#files Added v3 versions (single and dual hotend) with a surface for mounting an LED strip at the bottom (see pics) Added version 4 dual extruder files - minor adjustment in spacing between hotends to allow for "beefier" fan shrouds and more space for cable mounting.

I've just orded my second bowden-based e3d hotend, so I've yet to test the dual hotend configuration. updated - added a second (v2) dual hotend configuration that should bring both hot ends as close as possible together. updated -added a third (v3) dual hotend configuration that includes extensive reinforcement and removal of pre-defined holes (drill your own). Also added (v3) single hotend with reinforcement and "drill your own" harness mount points.
