Flashforge Adventurer 3 cover

thingiverse

Now updated to Version 2. I recently acquired my first 3D printer, a Monoprice Voxel, which is actually a rebranded Flashforge Adventurer 3. The printer features a fully enclosed area to securely hold the filament spool. I'm pleased with the printer, but one notable downside is that the enclosed spool holder can only accommodate 0.5 kg spools. To utilize my stock of 1 kg spools, I had to attach them to an external spool holder, which is acceptable, but then the spool cover cannot be replaced. So for my initial project, I designed a cover for the spool holder with a slot to feed filament through it. This design remains a work in progress and could benefit from further improvements. However, I am sharing it here in case anyone else finds it useful. Version 2 modifications: 1. The cover is now split into five distinct pieces instead of four, featuring a dedicated piece for holding the sliding latch, which results in a more secure hold on the latch. 2. I revised the filament slit to allow the cover to be removed and reinstalled without requiring filament unloading. 3. I increased the diameter of the pins from 3 mm to 5 mm. 4. I made slight adjustments to the radii of the curved section on the top piece. 5. The bottom latch is now divided between the left and right cover pieces.
