Bolt-on Flashforge Creator Pro/Powerspec Ultra Filament Guide

thingiverse

There are a few designs for filament guides already available for these 3D printers. Most, if not all, are two-sided and installed with existing straps. However, one of my straps is broken, making it impossible to use. Therefore, I designed this simple single-sided bracket that bolts on. It's very sturdy even at 5% infill. To install, you simply unscrew the original plastic parts and replace them with this part using the same screws. Next, slide the filament tube through the eyelets, which hold it in place by friction. I use a 1/4-inch OD polyethylene tube, but I believe a 6-millimeter OD tube would work just as well. Note that you must print this design in vertical orientation to avoid breakage due to its low z-strength.
