Compact Neo Solo

*** Check end of Details page for Updates ***

I was contacted by a fellow Thingverse contributor, TheMyThosaurProject to see if I could design a hotend cover for the Ender3 V2 Neo printer. Since I do not have this printer, but he does, he was willing to be a partner in developing a hotend cover with me. To aide in designing this part, I also ordered a complete Neo hotend assembly from Amazon so I could 3d model all of the parts. Unfortunately, the back plate is not available to buy, but I was able to download an stl file from another Thingverse contributor, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5535608. This was a good start to the project, but I had to adjust a few dimensions from the .stl download of the backing plate based on the actual dimensions of the stock housing.

At any rate, we were able to come up with a hotend housing that fit the Neo back plate perfectly, but also added some extra features over the stock housing. This design maintains the original CRT mount position
