Anet A8 Option B Hotend Carriage

thingiverse

I must have gone through Millions of designs and prototypes for my Anet A8 Hotend. Gave them different names, testing and junking them eventually. So I finally ended with Option B. It works with a 40mm Fan and houses a E3D V6. It can take the Volcano or standard E3D V6 hot end as the cooling fan is height adjustable. Option B works with the standard Anet A8 Part Cooling Duct. I am busy working on "Option C" that will be able to use the Spriya part cooling Duct. :) When fitting, ensure to fit the Base first before attaching the hot end and fan assembly. The 40mm Fan holds the front of the fan brkt assembly and when fitting it onto the Base, there is 4 holes allocated for fitment at the rear. Use whatever you have from the standard A8 Kit to fit Option B. I am not sure if the newer versions of the Anet A8 will be able to use Option B so it would be nice if someone that has a new spec Anet A8, test it and give some feedback to other A8 Users.
