I figured I would post a topic in case anyone else would find the info useful. Here is my situation:

My hexagon hot end is dead in the water and instead of ordering the parts i need to fix it I was thinking of ordering an E3Dv6 to replace it. I have a Makerfarm i3v 12" and it is my only (non working) printer right now.


  • Can the aluminum mount from the Hexagon be used to mount the E3Dv6 to the extruder from the kit?
  • Are there any other changes that need to be made to make the E3Dv6 work with the parts from the MakerFarm kit?


I ask because since I have no printer I can't print custom mounts or make modified parts. So I am hoping that it would just work to get me going again.


Any help would be appreciated! Thank you.
