Compact Direct Drive Bowden Extruder

Originally created by Schlotzz. It was easier for me to remodel it in Inventor than to modify the SCAD file. The original extruder is very nice but it was difficult somewhat to change the filament so I added a small handle for quick release and guided the filament as close to the drive gear and ball bearing as possible.

Print this model and tell me what you think, I have included the inventor files as well as STEP files for ease of modification. This is made for use with NEMA 17 stepper motor
