Ender 3/Pro Threaded Filament Guide/Screw Guard

thingiverse

I liked the design of the original, so I remade it to reduce rubbing and filament cutting while going through the guide. To achieve this, I used a Push Fitting Connector from my Ender 3 Pro and attached a short piece of Bowden tubing to it, then screwed it into the guide. I employed an old nozzle and a ratchet to clear the threads, ensuring the connector would screw in straight. I also aimed to align everything more precisely and minimize rubbing on the screw guard. The result was a successful print with threads on the bed, but I recommend adjusting the orientation for optimal results on your printer. Although I didn't use supports, there was some minor droop/sag visible in the pictures, which did not affect the overall print quality.
