E3D Lite6 Adapter for MP Select Mini Pro

thingiverse

This is an Adapter that can be used to replace the stock hot end of the MP Select Mini Pro with an E3D Lite6 or a simular hot end. It moves the inductive sensor a few milimeters upwards so that its higher than the E3Ds nozzle. This prevents the sensor from hitting the builtplate. Remember to change the thermistor type using pronterface after installing the new Hot End. A good guide on how to do so can be found here: https://www.mpselectmini.com/extended_g-code_table#m561_-_change_thermistor_type UPDATE: Some people seemed to have Issues printing this thing. I have made some changes to it so that it's easier to print. I have also reduced the z offset which seems to make the inductive sensor more reliable. This new version works well on my modified MP select mini Pro. HOW TO PRINT: Print it with the side facing the fan assembly on the buildplate. Do not print with supports, it just makes printng it more difficult and it really does not need supports. PLA seems to work fine, the part does not get very hot during use. I have noticed that this part snaps into place nicely when printed with PETG, some pushing might be required to make it fit for PLA but it's really not an Issue. Check your slicers preview to make sure that all walls are being printed. Be careful when removing the adapter from your buildplate as the walls are designed to be very thin so that the distance between the fan and the hot end / printed part isn't increased significantly.
