The Idea here is to half the Bowden tube in order to get some of the benefits of a direct drive without adding weight to the moving hotend.
There are 2 arm options. The Dropped Arm allows the extruder to stay below the top arm of the printer when the Z gantry is at the top. I do know that this needs modified in order to prevent the need for very long bolts.
Everything was designed to be without supports.
I would be happy to see if this idea intrigues anyone.

I have not tested this yet!
