prusaprinters

<p>This coupler is used to connect a piece of PTFE tube to the feeder, and have it go through a hole in the filament hatch, in order to use external filament holders with the hatch closed.</p><p>I use it with the <i>1kg spool holder for monoprice voxel</i> by Ryoichi Kato and a filament guide.</p><p>It is a remix of the <i>External Filament Mod - Flashforge Adventurer 3</i> Coupler V3 by Albert Soler, with the following changes:</p><ul><li>Made flat parts thicker to make it more rigid.</li><li>Added an insert ring to keep it form moving.</li><li>Added screw connector for the PTFE tube.</li></ul><p>The screw connectors are from the <i>Locking bowden connector</i> by Nicholas Christopoulos.</p><p>The <i>External Filament Mod - Flashforge Adventurer 3</i> also includes a useful guide for drilling a hole through the hatch.</p><p><strong>Different printer versions</strong></p><p>There are newer version of the printer that this coupler doesn't fit.<br>If you have such a version, maybe the External Filament Mod for Flashforge New Adventurer 3 and Lite by Shinobu Takahashi will work instead.</p><p><strong>Things</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3626515">External Filament Mod - Flashforge Adventurer 3</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4269840">Locking bowden connector</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4199877">1kg spool holder for monoprice voxel</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4560285">External Filament Mod for Flashforge New Adventurer 3 and Lite</a></li></ul><p><strong>Print Settings (used for the objects in the photos)</strong></p><ul><li>Printer Brand: FlashForge</li><li>Printer: &nbsp;Adventurer 3</li><li>Rafts: No</li><li>Supports: Yes</li><li>Resolution: 0.08</li><li>Infill: 100%</li><li>Filament: Flashforge PLA Black</li></ul>
