Hi,
I have purchased a CTC printer and have watched many Youtube videos for upgrading etc. This one talks about replacing the extruder for the e3d v6:

He links to this project on Thingiverse:

My question is, would I need to purchase a whole of the e3d v6 extruder or just some parts of it?
I have found one here but not sure if I could add it to just one side (the ctc is dual extruder) and then add another one at a later date (when money allows). This is the one I have found:

Thanks for any help you can give to a newbie.

Given the thingiverse file if you want a dual extruder 3D printer then you will need to get two e3d extruders. Really you need the full kit as you need the heater and the thermistor.
