Greetings; I'm in the process of rebuilding the hot end of a failed CR10-S Pro V2, as the hot end supplied with cannot long tolerate PETG temps. Its too hot for the capriorn tubing when it goes all the way to the butt end of the nozzle.
The E3D based stuff claims to goto 300-350C, and there is such an all metal hot end on the prusa Mk3S, and after refitting a new heat break, its working with PETG quite well. Haldis is making a volcano version of an E3D hot end, and selling the whole kit for $40 on amazon. I've designed, and am printiing the final fine tuned copy of a mount that fits on top of that, to support the Sherpa extruder driver, one of the lightest direct drives extant. So that will be assembled on the carriage in another 45 minutes. That leaves 2 open bolt holes above the side fans and the ones on the left could use used to fix the BLTouch in a similar position to where it was originaly. The BLTouch is the std nylon stinger model. But the volcano head is around 5 to 8mm taller than a stock hot end, meaing the BLTouch needs lowered by that amount. What I need is the measurement from the base of the BLTouch, to the glass bed surface at the point of the BLTouchs triggering. Do you know of someplace (a URL) with drawings that define that distance? That would speed the design of a mounting for it in openscad by at least a day. Thanks Chris.
