Screwless side filament guide (Ender Max Neo) + STEP

thingiverse

User OpenDorrPolicy uploaded a really cool side filament guide for Ender 3 Max. However, I wasn't the fan of the need of using the screw. I redesigned it then. The anchoring part that hold the bearing has been changed to the one used by TheViralDIY in his/her project (https://thingiverse.com/thing:4764130). Now the bearing snaps into the anchor and turns using the balls inside the bearing rather than a screw. What is more I repositioned the screw holes in the base of the element. You will need then two M3 screws - one M3×25 the other one M3×10. First one goes into the already made hole in the filament detector, while the other one in the hole closer to the side v-aluprofile. The round profile that goes around the ball bearing (608-2RS) is taken from the original project and was not modified. Thanks to OpenDorrPolicy for the original thing and TheViralDIY for the idea of snapping anchor. Print on the side. Updated version 4/05/2023 - increase base height, changed fillets for chamfers, added step file If you like my work you can buy me a beer, ekhem... coffee, coffee of course - https://bmc.link/WShade
