Ender 3 Direct Drive Bracket

thingiverse

I didn't care for the cable management on the original design, so I created this one myself. To minimize the length of the PTFE tube as much as possible, I brought it closer to the hot-end. As a result, the pneumatic push-in fittings are no longer necessary since the metal all-metal extruder drive feeder now holds the PTFE tube firmly in place against the hot-end. Due to the tight tolerances, there's a risk of an elephant foot affecting the fit around the gantry bracket, but you can easily fix this with a file if needed. This design works seamlessly with stock bolts and hardware.
