Quick-use Dust Filter

thingiverse

If you're like many users, you often forget to secure the dust filter onto your filament before inserting it into your printer, wasting valuable time removing it, adding the filter and reinserting it. This design aims to solve this issue by allowing for easy application at any point during the print process. To set up the filter, simply print both parts and insert sponge into each one. Then, connect both parts together using a knife or blade and cut along the designated gap. To apply the filter to your filament, slide it through the side of the filter and twist one part to secure it in place. The filter will lock onto the filament and, if done correctly, should be just as easy to remove. This filter is still in its prototype phase, so any feedback or suggestions you have would greatly help improve its design.
