Prusa MK3 Bowden for CTC i3 Pro B

thingiverse

This is a WIP part for my CTC i3 printer. It is a Bowden setup, using the Prusa MK3 parts as a base, but simplified, merged with a known-good part for my printer. I have removed a lot of screws, changed around some mounting pieces, etc. My clone E3D extruder also has a different outside dimension for the heat sinks than the genuine article, so this has had a larger margin cut out to allow it to fit. Some parts have also been lengthened to allow for the difference in distance between where the bed sits and where the rails actually are. I have split out test pieces to make sure the clone mounting will work, will join up and may do other sized pieces for other cloned extruders. I have not printed this yet. It may be a total disaster. The only part that should need supports is the backplate, and then only touching buildplate flipped 180 from uploaded orientation. You may need to clear out the teeth for the belt, but I have printed this part several times already with good success.
