Stewpercharged Ender 3 Extruder Mover

thingiverse

This Ender 3 modification will transform your printer into an ultra-compact powerhouse, shrinking its width to a fraction of its original size. Not only that, but it also takes your extrusion capabilities to the next level by drawing filament in a perfectly straight line from spool to extruder. As a result, filament won't wear out the plastic tensioner as quickly, and the stepper motor will always be pulling against consistent resistance - no more dealing with slack loops. The lack of resistance from guides, wheels, or worn grooves means you'll enjoy uniform extrusion every time, leading to enhanced print quality reliability. To take it to the next level, this modification includes a 90-degree shift for the stepper motor and tensioner, plus a built-in connector for cable drag chain. To get the most out of this setup, orientate your text with the side facing up when printing, and use supports (15% zig-zag) to ensure a smooth finish.
