E3D V6 Shim Set

Here is a set of spacer shims ranging from .25mm to .50mm in .05mm steps. Their diameter is set so they will easily drop into the recess in the bottom of a Wades reloaded extruder designed for a Hexagon hot end.

When I was fitting my new E3D V6 hot ends to my existing Wades Reloaded extruders from my Taz 5, I found that the top head on the hexagon it was replacing was a bit higher than the E3D head relative to the aluminum plate. I also found that one of my two extruders had a bit more gap than the other.

So, I designed and printed these to solve the problem. Yea, I could just print another extruder body specifically for the E3D, but these are so much more simple and less waste and leaves the extruder body able to take either a hex or E3D hot end.
