Ender 3 v2 Filament Guide w/screw

thingiverse

I just bought my 1st 3D printer, a Creality Ender 3 v2. I did not like the way the filament was pulled at such a sharp angle into the extruder. So, I designed one that I like using TinkerCAD. It uses a common 608 ball bearing. I included a thumbscrew to make it easier loading filament. It bolts right under the existing locking nuts of the Z-axis rollers, and over the Z-axis motor. Printed with PLA and standard settings. The thumbscrew is stronger when printed flat using supports, but takes more cleanup. The base was also printed with supports. If the thumbscrew is tight in the internal threads, just sand it a little and work it back and forth gently until it goes in with minimal force. My very first thing I ever submitted to the 3D community!
