V0.1 (not tested yet)

After Huxley-eg I finally found someone who already did what I was trying/looking for : http://forums.reprap.org/read.php?94,84403,93044#msg-93044

But I wanted to mix that with the V9, and thus came the vertical-x-carriage with LM8UU for V9 :

Benefits

  • only 2 pieces
  • with LM8UU
  • active cooling with a little fan, mounted on only one point to just rotate it if needed to access at the inside/unmount the hotend
  • maybe the most compact/accessible extruder ^^


I'll also have to redesign the x-ends after...
