Parametric Filament Holding Bowden Plug

thingiverse

A clever parametric Bowden tube connector plug design. Its purpose is to keep your dry filament box sealed while allowing for easy removal of the filament without opening the box. This is achieved through a hidden grip within the plug knob, making it simple to insert and remove the filament. Insert the filament into the hole until it reaches the bottom, then plug it into the Bowden connector. When taking it out, the filament will come with it; simply pull it back out. This design offers several benefits: - It nicely fills the connector hole and holds firmly in place. - It's easy to remove using just one hand. Recommended printing settings include: - No infill for a smooth finish. - Using some "Brim" for better bed adhesion. - A fine resolution is recommended due to its small functional parts. The dimensions provided are for the PoPprint PC4-M6 product, which features M6 threading and 4 mm diameter.
