PTFE Tube Cap with Filament Holder - Tighter Fitting

thingiverse

Thank you designer motocoder for creating the original file! I took it upon myself to make some minor adjustments to enhance its performance. To improve structural integrity, I carefully applied light chamfers to the prongs, which allows them to grip the filament more securely. Additionally, I narrowed the prong slots to increase stiffness and stability. Furthermore, I drilled a cylindrical hole into the prong "teeth" to maximize surface contact with the filament. My first prototype worked flawlessly for me. I also created an alternative design without the outer chamfer, allowing it to be conveniently hung from a clip.
