ender 3 filament guide 3d models

Here's a fresh take on that outdated filament guide. ...I whipped up some much-needed fixes for the two top Z-axis stepper motor screws, which calls for swapping out those old ones for shiny new M3 x 35mm screws and two sturdy flat M3 washers.

... accessible for online editing here https://www.tinkercad.com/things/2trEltVOvAV. ... I discovered these pulleys at Menards and created a fresh filament guide utilizing the following model as a starting point: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2920344.

A pair of rollers to help guide the filament without adding friction. Parts needed can be purchased at Lowes in the hardware section, they are rollers for a patio door. I 'borrowed' parts of designs from Holspeed and TomasKom_CZ to make this. ... ...

The filament guide I'm using can't be attached to the two mounting screws on the brass Z lead screw bearing. Instead, it connects via a roller wheel nut. ... Fasteners: * 1 M3 x 8 bolt * 1 M3 nut * 1 PC4-M6 Coupler

(Thanks for bringing this to my attention) Also, if you use the filament guide on your extruder stepper like I do, it will reach that at around 205-210mm. Typically, I don't run tall prints, so I didn't notice this issue. To address this, I'm making...

I designed a custom filament guide that allows for easy insertion of a PTFE tube, reducing wear and tear on the component. This design was inspired by a similar model available on Thingiverse. The guide features two routing options to accommodate...

I made this remix of the original design to work seamlessly with the Ender 3 z-Axis screw stabilizer, retaining everything except for the arm. I modified the arm to be 1 inch shorter so it doesn't protrude as far, while still utilizing a single...

Filament cen be put into this guide anytime even after it was loaded to the extruder mechanism. The part fixing on one of the M4 screws of the X-axis carriage. STEP file is included if you want to make any changes. If you want to make your...

The bearings I used are precision-made, boasting a 1/4" inner diameter by 3/8" outer diameter and a sturdy 1/8" thick flange design. You can acquire them at an affordable price from Amazon. ...For threading the roller, I utilized a 1/4"x 20 tap, while...

Bottom filament holder provides flawless filament alignment every time. ... Thanks, Have a great day!

Recommended: secure the guide using one self-tapping screw, M5 x 12. This item was designed using Tinkercad. ...Edit it online at https://www.tinkercad.com/things/cWbjSkpU0Dm

... which unfortunately conflicted with Benawhite's stabilizer. ...As a result, I've crafted an alternative that seamlessly integrates with both the stabilizer and Filboyt's original guide, while also accommodating my shorter guide within his end clip.

I created this after one of the other guides I had printed began making a squeaking noise, likely only audible after installing a silent board. It utilizes a small section of Capricorn tube and is secured using the lower Z screw fittings. Although...

This guide works seamlessly with the X axis support. No additional parts, including bearings, are required - everything needed is already included. If desired, the pin and clip can be swapped out for a standard M4x20 bolt and M4 nut. ... I hope this...

This component adjusts the filament's entry point and ensures it doesn't come into contact with the z-axis screw, preventing potential damage or misalignment.

People attach wheels by utilizing existing screws on hand. ...Wheel components connect seamlessly via a single strand of 1.75 millimeter thick filament.

People attach wheels using pre-existing screws. ...The wheel securely fastens itself to the system via a carefully placed 1.75 millimeter strand of filament.

I'm using https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3129612 version but I needed to get a longer base since I'll be adding the BTT Smart Filament Sensor before the extruder. ...This is my first remix.

Attaches directly to the upper metal rail, reducing the angle at which the filament enters the extruder. ...The image provided shows a design with cutouts, but these were eliminated in my setup.

Hi all! ...For this file I changed a bit the thickness in some areas and also opened a hole in the hook where you can put the filament to use supports only on the bed. ...Hope you find it useful.

This insert takes its place atop the aluminum extruder, swapping out one of the plastic end caps in the process. ...By doing so, it optimizes the filament's path as it exits the spool, providing a more favorable angle along the way.

... Upgrade Aluminum Extruder, replacing my old one in the process. ...Fortunately, I was able to salvage the original bearing with its unique groove from the discarded extruder, and it has been serving me well as a key component of my filament feeder.

Place this over the piece with the Facebook code, securing it in place with a small binder clip on the long part to allow the filament to slip through easily and avoid digging into the top of the feeder. ... For added stability and support, I suggest...

Remix of www.thingiverse.com/thing:3063886 Extended the mount arm by ten millimeters, added a shoulder to secure the 608 bearing, crafted a bearing retainer that grips the filament firmly in place, and designed a two-piece press-on pulley for the...

I created a system to more effectively steer the filament from the spool, regardless of its position. Even when stored in a dry box. A pass-through piece of bowden tube is held by a thin flange compressed as the nut is tightened. The thread used here...

... space for the screw after that. If you try printing this model and encounter any issues, please let me know. [EDIT] The thin plastic that holds the filament in the inlet is wearing out. ...I've uploaded a second version with thicker material.

I added a wheel or bearing to it now, and it just rolls its way around, hopefully reducing drag and wear on the parts and filament. I have a bolt designed to go with it, if you want everything printed together, but this can easily be replaced with a...
