Hello everyone,

I have printed some MiniExtruders (great for multi-color or multi-material printers). Just have a look at Flickr and YouTube. If you want to buy one (or even more), please write a PM or go to eMAKERshop - there you will find additional information.

The original design of this extruder comes from Adrian Bowyer (first seen on vimeo), I have just slightly modified it. The extruder body is modified to use a tongue to hold the bowden tube - so eMaker-Huxley and RepRapPro hot-ends should fit without problems (and without any adaptions). The second change to the original design is the screw hole for the idler (idler screw only can be removed, wenn the stepper motor is dismounted).

Greetings
Andy
