Bowden tube bracket

thingiverse

This piece attaches directly to the hotend bracket, clamping onto one of the wheel shafts and keeping the bowden tube perfectly aligned at the inlet of the hotend plug. The point where the bowden tube meets the hotend is already under significant stress due to constant rotation during x-axis movement on the Ender 3. I felt uneasy about the slight bending that occurred, so I designed this simple piece to maintain a straight line in its final position. No disassembly required - just print and click it into place.
