Finished printing the new extruder and assembled it. Still used the left-over stepper and tensioner parts I up-cycled from the M1.
Also modeled and printed a new rounded nut for the extruder tension bolt as the old one was tearing up my fingers.
I left a single layer of extrusion for bridging where the bolt head ends. It's simple to drill out by hand and results in a much cleaner print.
Much better on the fingers too.
Hardware source updated in Github.
