Hello,
I have a rather modified Shapeoko 2 and would like to have it capable of both CNC and 3D Print work with simple tooling changes. I'm not sure if anyone here is very familiar with the Shapeoko CNC project but for the most part I am trying to get advice on a heated bed and extruder.
I have already purchased the E3D v6 1.75 Universal hot end and am trying to figure out what extruder I should buy to go along with it. From what I have heard the Greg Wade Reloaded is a good extruder but A)not sure where to source it &
can't find if it is compatible with the Wade Reloaded.
I am not stuck on the Wade Reloaded but am open to options.
I also don't have (or any) experience in 3D printing so please be easy on me
One last thing, for some details on my machine and a similar forum posting @ Shapeoko, here is the link:

Thanks for all of your help to come
PS Attached is the overview diagram of how i plan on controlling everything.
