This is a two part system to mount an Bondtech BMG extruder (or clones) to a stock Ender5 Mount for direct drive. It will not reduce any of the printing space like most direct-drive mounts do.
The Mount is compatible with the HeroMe Gen3 Fan Duct and Mount, E3D Hotends, Stock Hotends & All-Metal Hotends in the Microswiss-Style. No drilling is needed, the system is completly removable.
To mount be extruder, you can mostly use Stock-Parts, but some stuff is needed:
I recommend glueing the distance bolts of the wheels into the mount, also i can recommand additional double sided tape to further strenghen the mount-carriage connection.
In order to connect the printed parts, you will need four M3-Screws and Nuts and washers, 8mm length should work, more doesnt hurt. the screws used in the pictures are 10 or 12mm.
Also, you will need a longer screw the replace one of the stock screws. (again with washers and nut). The screw is used to fixate a printer part to the carriage, it is screwed in from behind.
You will need a short piece of bowden tube to connect the extruder and the hotend, around 5cm should work, but please do not take it as granted and take measure yourself 🙂
