Updating my Makerbot Cupcake


Here's the new E3D hotend which I've built a bracket for, so that it will attach to my old Cupcake's print head stand.  Next I need to work out how to attach a stepper motor in place of the old DC one.  This will involve creating a geared torque converter so time to figure out feed rates, torque conversions and gear ratios.  Then sourcing the parts.

Woo! Fun times! :)
