CR6-SE Filament Guide

thingiverse

I have a drybox filament storage system that keeps my filaments nice and dry in my damp basement. The desiccant beads in the big tub are rechargeable, just a few minutes in the microwave and they are good for 90 days. I know this is effective because if I leave the filament threaded to the printer for more than a few days, the filament will become brittle and snap by itself. So I have to remember to rewind the filament if I'm not going to be printing for a few days. The system has been working great for 3 years! The universal spool adapters are here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2070272 Once I got my CR6-SE I whipped up these filament guides to work with the drybox. You'll need a standard 608 bearing, I used these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XTZJDCC You'll also need 2 M3x20 bolts to secure the base plate to the top of the filament sensor. The roller arm is glued to the base plate, I recommend superglue with "kicker" or 2-part epoxy for a good bond. The roller prints on its side with no supports. The bearing peg is just a friction fit, print it with the flange at the base.
