Tenlog / Hictop D3 PRO / D3 HERO nozzle purge bucket and wipe brush

thingiverse

I created this accessory because existing wipe-bucket versions on Thingiverse that use silicone didn't meet my requirements. The Tenlog D3 Pro features a unique nozzle with two protruding cylindrical head screws, making it nearly impossible to apply a silicone cap to the hot-end and collect dirt in the process. That's why I feel a surface is necessary for cleaning the nozzle and the lower part of the hot-end as much as possible. Silicone pads limit cleaning action to small filament oozes that remain attached to the nozzle during standby phases, between extruder changes. The brass brush (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GTWWRHM) I used is soft enough not to damage the nozzle and allows for effective cleaning when placed in line with the extruder movement. The small external tray helps collect extruded filaments and prevents dirt from accumulating around the printer. I designed it by printing in mirror mode, using 0.3mm high layers without a raft. It was one of my first prints made with the TL-D3-pro, and I've had some warping issues on a piece, so be aware of your needs before printing. This may prove useful for others.
