A Simple Magnetic Filament Dust Filter for Easy Nozzle Cleaning. Printing: * The filter prints upright, ensuring a stable build. * Settings include 0.2 mm layer height, 15% infill, and 40 mm/s print speed. * Material is PLA, allowing for easy printing without support structures. * In most cases, the filter can be printed without additional supports. Components: * Two housing units are required for assembly. * Eight round magnets measuring 6x3 mm are necessary for magnetic attachment. * Two foam sheets (18x20x5 mm) serve as a base for the filter media. * Two cotton pads (18x20x1 mm) are used to capture dust and debris. * A few drops of superglue are needed for magnet assembly. Assembly: * Apply a small amount of superglue to each magnet hole, then press the magnets firmly into place. * Ensure the magnets are aligned properly to allow both housing parts to fit together securely. * Place the cotton pad on the foam base and push it into the housing notches. * Attach the filter to your filament and enjoy clog-free printing.
