Version 2 - Silicone Sock for CR-10 Stock Hotend

### [There's now a version 3, that can be found here](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3030379) This is version 2 of my CR-10 sock. After actually building one of the v1's and finding some issues, I set to fixing them: - Increased coverage of the top of the block to allow the sock to better stay wrapped around the block when heated, as well as providing more coverage from the fan - increased the wall thickness by 0.25mm to address sock slipping due to lack of rigidity (Could be fixed with stiffer silicone, but I don't know what to use just yet) - moved the cavities for the bottom screws to where they actually go - made a little room for the vertical mounting screws on the top cover - changed the blind sprues for the corners into full outlets as it wasn't allowing enough water out during the molding process This is a mold for making Silicone Sock insulators for the original stock heater block shipped with the CR-10. You'll need a high-temperature silicone to work with, either a two part mixture, or an RTV single part will work. [I used this kind](https://goo.gl/ud9dpR) Other supplies: - Latex gloves - Disposable bowl/dish - Dish Soap - 2x M3 12mm screws - Optional but very helpful: [1½" Ratcheting C-Clamp](https://www.amazon.com/IRWIN-QUICK-GRIP-Handi-Clamp-4-59400CD/dp/B00005RHP0/) Check [this post](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2848281#tips) for instructions on how to use this mold **Check out my other socks for other hotends:** - [Version 1 - CR-10 Stock Hotend](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2848472) - [Generic OEM E3D Hotend](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2848281) - [Generic Mk8 Hotend](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2848480) - [Generic Mk10 Hotend](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2848485)
