    I was able to modify C42's The extruder block to house the E3D hot end nice and snug with the stock metal plate from the Hexagon Hot End. If there is any interest let me know and ill post the STL File, of course if its ok with Clough.

    It's a shorter belt (188mm vs 200mm). This extruder also uses m3x50 screws and compression springs and 608 bearings. I could put together a kit if there is interest. I have belts and pulleys.

    Did you just make the 17mm recess in the bottom shorter so it presses against the top of the hot end?

    I'd be happy to make a variant, or if you like, go ahead and post it as a remix. Just mark it as a remix of my thing, and Thingiverse will make a link off my listing so people can find it easily.

    Here is the link to the remixed version. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:714547 . You would still need to download the original Itty Bitty for the rest of the parts.

    Peter - You use 3mm filament, so I assume the extruder base is intended for that. You might note that in your Thingiverse listing. The 1.75mm E3Dv6 has a PTFE tube that ideally raises into the extruder base, and your design likely can't accommodate the larger diameter of that tube. The filament feed hole also won't be optimally placed for 1.75mm filament, but that isn't as significant of an issue.

    It's easy enough to drill out the hole to fit the PTFE tube
