The Sony E-mount was brought to the 35 millimeter video camera market with the Sony NEX-FS100. The first third-party camera to use the E-mount was the Hasselblad Lunar, announced at photokina on 18 September 2012 and released in early 2013. In September 2013, Sony announced the first model from new ILCE series, the Sony α3000.

UPDATE!!!! 10/16/15The website is LIVE! http://713maker.com/ Feel free contact us if you have any questions about the mounts. Thanks again to everyone for all your support in the prototype phase! We have added a new strain relief loop for wire management which is now standard in all kits and will be the same color as the lock ring color chosen.
UPDATE!!!! 10/9/15
***The day has arrived at LAST! We will be opening the website to the public on the 15th of October. We will have a limited release until then for those who were early supporters and helped refine the mount into the great product it is now. Beta testers have logged thousands of hours of combined printing on their mounts and I have worked hard to listen to their feedback and adjust the mount to fix their few concerns. I will be sending out emails to the early backers tonight and tomorrow for the limited release so they can be among the very first to have their new mounts. If you get this email please do not share the link so I can be sure to have the early release mounts out in a timely fashion before the public release. I know this has been a long time coming and I am sure a few folks were starting to think it might never happen. But I hope the quality of the mounts and performance they bring to everyone's printers will make up for the delays. I wanted to do everything I could to make sure the release was a success and we were done with testing.***
- Compatible with the E3D V6, Volcano and E3D LITE6
- 3 included M3 screw mount the hot end to the effector plate. Bye Bye long bolts and nuts!
- Also compatible with the Prometheus V2 and all standard 12mm slot mount hot ends.
- Basic kit includes everything you need to get your hot end mounted in minutes in a rock solid mount including our new strain relief loop for wire management.
- Also compatible with the Yellow Jack from The Maker Hive.
- New wire management loop for strain relief. Can be placed on any of the three sides. Wire can be held by it or wire tie used.
So I got a bit bored and decided to solve an issue I was having on my printer. I do a large amount of really long prints (36-52+ hours each) and I have had to replace my E3d V6 mount twice now due to it getting a TINY amount of wobble over time. It is a great designed mount, but wears out after too many large prints for my taste due to be made from plastic. So I sat down in Solidworks and throw together something that is working really great so far. Below is a picture of my BETA design and test model
It is an aluminum groove mount with a small locking ring to hold the print head in place. This rests on top of three custom length carbon fiber spacers. The spacers are capped off with ultralight weight caps that align the spacers and allow short titanium screws to replace the 1 3/4'+ steel screws and lock nut. This also allows you to only remove the mount and leave the spacers in place, thus stopping the mad juggle of trying to line up the spacer, long screw, mount, locking ring and the nut with two hands. Now you simply unscrew the nut on top and leave the screws at the bottom of the spacers attached to the printer.
So far my printing tests have shown no decreased performance compared to the mount I was using.
I am going to play with this mount for a few more days and refine it a bit more. The finish needs a bit more work to take the anodizing a bit better on the cut edges which is something I will work on in the next week or so.
I am also playing with a full carbon fiber mount to see how much weight I can lose on the print head overall. I am also planning to adapt this modular style of mount to both the Chimera and the Volcano print heads through changing spacers and the milled mount piece. Just waiting for both to arrive so I can get started on this ASAP. Also going to look at doing something very similar to the stock mount to make it a bit easier to mount a dial indicator for calibration and to lighten things up a bit on the stock print head. I had to throw it back on in a pinch while waiting for replacement parts on the E3D once. Would be nice to just undo the bottom three screws and drop in a whole unit with mount, spacers and print head with just three small screws and not fuss with the bolt/nut system.
More updates to come!
