The file 'Geeetech MK8 Dual Extruder Plate For My Quick Fit Carriage 3D Printer Model' is (STL,SLDPRT,sldprt,STEP,SLDASM) file type, size is 2.7MB.
A mounting plate for the Geeetech MK8 dual extruder made for my Quick Fit Carriage (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1670305). The fans and heat sinks have to be removed to fit the plate (they reduce Y-building volume by ~29mm and increase weight and torque of the carriage). Alternative cooling of the throat and the two motors is achieved by a air-duct system powered by a 50mm blower. On each side mounting holes for M3 screws and nuts are present to allow for fixation of bed-level sensors. These holes have a separation of 26mm. I made the blower-attachment removable. I'll add a 40mm fan version later.
Used dimension of the mounting bracket: 86.0mm x 10mm x 15.5mm.
Because I do not have a dual extruder, I cannot check if everything is OK. There are no CAD-data-sheets available for the extruder.
Thanks to Tombhunter for manifold and valuable bug-fixing input.
