Anet A8 E3d Direct drive mount. As simple as possible...
Mount your e3d V6 (or clone) directly to your Mk8 extruder, It sits in exactly the same position as the original hot end and should only require the Z endstop position adjusting to work.
This is untested and was just a part I created whilst I wait for my clone Titan extruder to arrive.
It uses the original Mk8 parts other than the hotend mount that this replaces.
I hope someone finds it useful. if it works (or doesn't), please leave a comment
The original mounting mechanism will need slight modification to fit, the aluminium mounting plate will need to be drilled to allow the heatsink to fit.
EDIT: this has now been tested by myself and works as intended
EDIT: Added E3D clamp(s) with and without fan mount
EDIT Added 40MM fan bracket
EDIT: Added "Bowden adaptor" for clone heatsinks, thread is M10x1, to keep the PTFE straight
