Filament Guide for Zesty Nimble V1/V2

thingiverse

This is simply a filament guide that slips on to the Zesty Nimble cable and reduces the strain on the breech lock. I noticed that this was an issue for me as I continued printing when my printer would make the occasional quick travel, resulting in the filament pulling on the breech lock, popping it open. This piece simply moves the stress up and away from the breech lock, making horizontal pressure from the hob the only stress on the breech lock. To use this guide, you will only need one m3 nut and bolt. Just print it, remove the cable from the breech, slide the guide up and on to the cable (red tube), replace the cable into the nimble, rotate the guide to your preferred position, and then insert and tighten the nut and bolt. I hope this helps you all!
