2-in-1 Cable and Filament Guide for Prusa i3 EG-1

thingiverse

I needed a versatile guide that could manage both cable and filament with ease. Current designs on Thingiverse were geared towards Prusa i3's with a single-panel frame, but ElectronicGeek's EG-1 offered a second panel to secure the LCD control panel in place. Moreover, none of the existing models served dual purposes. This design features an upper fork to securely hold the cable while providing ample clearance for the filament to flow down the middle of the printing platform. Additional supports on the sides ensure the guide remains firmly in place once mounted. After feeding the filament into the extruder, simply slide it into the guide using the open end and keep the filament within the loop by closing it with the clip.
