Artillery X1 - Small accessories - Kit 1: pliers holder, protection of sd-usb sockets and filament cleaner

thingiverse

I don't know about you, but for me my Artillery Sidewinder X1 is a great machine that lacks some small but useful accessories. I've made three of them. 1- Hook for electrical cutting pliers. If there's one useful accessory for 3D printing, it's an electrical cutting plier. I like to have it always near the printer, so I made this simple hook that's easy to install. You just need to unscrew the middle screw bolt, put in the hook, and screw it back on. 2- A filament cleaner. This filament cleaner is designed to fit over the Teflon tube of the extruder. Simply put a piece of sponge or foam inside and pass the filament through it. 3- A USB/SD card cover. This printer has an amazing feature - both a USB and SD card reader. Unfortunately, they were placed without protection, making them prone to collecting filament dust and other debris. This cover offers protection with two lids: one for the SD card and one for the USB port. The hinge is made from 1.75mm filament, and the cover is secured with double-sided tape on the printer. I designed everything without supports and with low infill (10% is enough). I hope this will help you out. By the way, if you're wondering about the red piece near the cover, it's my latest invention: the Great Gratouille. It's a nozzle cleaner that I suggest you print to avoid damaging your nozzles.
