Update 01-Sept-2018 - New version R3 parts added.
The Extruder Body for the Original Prusa i3 Mk3 seems to cause difficulty for users when they need to remove the E3D v6 hotend for service or to remove a blockage. Because of the stepped design of the extruder body the neck of the v6 heatsink fits in to the body fairly easily but is very hard to remove without considerable force.
Close examination of the extruder body drawing revealed a possible rework to allow easy removal and replacement
