Inspired by Hypercube Evolution extruder, combined with the power of direct drive extruder and, BL touch and a filament sensor extruder.
To be able to print flxible filaments I needed direct drive extruder, plus i wanted to change my nozzles often. On standard prusha i3 MK3S extruder the process of changing nozzle is a real proccess. I wanted an extruder that makes it as easy as possible.
## Features
- Easily maintainable
- Direct drive
- Supports BL touch
- Filament sensor
- Supports E3D Volcano type hotend
- Extruder is exchangable, locking mechanism is compatible with Hypercube Evolution X-Carrige
- Supports Hypercube Evolution Optical sensor homing, but I used it with sensorless homing
## Parts
### Electronics and movement
- **Optical Sensor**: https://www.banggood.com/TWO-TREES-10pcs-Optical-Endstop-Light-Control-Limit-Optical-Switch-for-3D-Printer-p-1510313.html
