Filament Funnel For Frustration-Free Feeding Customizer

thingiverse

I was fine-tuning my Filament Funnel for Frustration-Free Feeding when I discovered that I'd designed it specifically for my own filament tubes and wouldn't accommodate other tube or filament diameters. Since I created it using OpenSCAD, I decided to upload the design and let others modify it to suit their needs. This was my first time attempting to share a project online, so please share your thoughts with me. This guide aims to simplify loading filament into small holes in tubes. One end slips over the tube, while the other features a sloped funnel that guides the filament into its hole. My vision and manual dexterity aren't what they used to be, and my filament holders are positioned against a wall. I'd have to stand at an awkward angle to get the filament close enough to the hole, which often resulted in frustration after multiple failed attempts to insert it. More often than not, failure meant dropped filament snapping back onto the spool, causing even more distress. The 6F has made my life significantly easier. I hope it will be just as helpful for others.
