CR6-SE Top & bottom mount filament guides

thingiverse

Note: After running my lower filament guide for a while now I noticed it is warping(printed in PLA). I'm not sure what the heat source is that is causing it. I can't imagine the filament sensor would be getting hot enough and the stepper seems far enough away. If possible try to print it in ABS. ---------------------------------- This is an edit of my top rail filament guide to work with the CR6-SE. From the center of the bolts to the center of the wheel is 46mm. Richard Bruckner posted the model for the spool holder in the Creality CR-6 SE/CR-6 MAX Official User Group; RB_CR6_SE_Top_Mount_Spool_Holder.stl. I am not taking credit for this model. I've included a version here where I made the mounting holes smaller to fit M4x8 bolts.You will need M4 t-nuts of course. Because of the thickness of this mount you will need to print the reworked nut I have included. The washer is included just in case you have to much play between the nut and mount. I borrowed the nut and washer from here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3646853. I am not taking credit for these models, I just modified the nut. You use the OEM spool from the CR6(or other Creality printer). You will need to get a skate bearing(or fidgit bearing, etc.) for this. I had some abec 5 bearings from some old CCM inline skates I had. The tolerances may be tight for the bearing wheel and spacers depending on printer settings. You may need to tap them in. You will also need one M3x16 screw and m3 nut to secure each bearing. **You will need longer bolts than OEM to mount both guides.** Print two spacers and a wheel for each guide. There are no specific printing requirements.
