Get 10 small mendel parts or 2 larger ones or your design printed for
adapting my RepMan Dremel milling-toolhead to fit the Mendel.

See:
[objects.reprap.org]
Note that you will probably have to design a new x-carriage-lower_1off or even
also a x-carriage-upper_1off due to the poor design of the Mendel x-carriage
regarding mounting alternative tools that are wider then 22mm.


5 additional small or 1 large parts if you can do it so extruder and mill can be switched with 4 or less easily accessible screws.
