Lid for DoogieLabs' CR-10S bowden drive with guide and filament sensing

thingiverse

Printed as-is in Gembird PETG (a Dutch manufacturer) at 235°C with an 80°C heated bed, "Everyday" brand hairspray applied to a 300x300 mirror placed directly on top of the aluminum plate. A print speed of 50 mm/s worked fine for me; results may vary. The part has a 2° taper on the section that enters the sensor housing and fits snugly at 100% on my printer. Although it is not loose, it is relatively easy to remove, so you might want to oversize to 101% or 102% to achieve a tighter fit. The actual extruder parts are not visible in the picture because they are mounted directly above the hot end to convert the printer into an improvised direct drive system. The reason for the color mismatch is that I was testing different filaments and unsure how well this setup would work at that time.
