Ender 3 - Direct Drive Adapter

thingiverse

This is a custom direct driver filament adapter created specifically for my Ender 3. Virtually all of my original components were reused, with only two stepper mount screws needing to be replaced with M3-20 due to the new mount depth. Everything fits together seamlessly, and I'm even able to continue using ReplayMD's filament knob v2 and the Petsfang Bullseye Duct. Although, I did need to trim the cable guide from the Petsfang fan base. * The two red components in the pictures are the essential parts required to convert your stock Ender 3 to direct drive. * This has been thoroughly tested by rbalandis and works flawlessly with the Mico Swiss hotend. **Updates:** * February 15, 2019 - I added a cable chain end as requested. This terminates johnniewhiskey's Ender 3 Cable Chain directly to the z axis assembly, ensuring both ends of the chain are perfectly aligned and eliminating unnecessary tension on the chain. * February 3, 2019 - I added a cable support that attaches to the old stepper mount. I primarily designed this to keep the cable out of the way for video recording from behind, but it also tidies up the cable as well.
