Tevo Tornado Filament Guide and Run Out Sensor

thingiverse

Here's a combination of telo17's "Tevo Tornado Filament guide V5" and blaiseb's "Ender 3 Filament runout sensor and guide with bearing." I like telo12's base design, while blaiseb's use of a generic Kw12-3 Microswitch impressed me. I merged these two designs together to create this unique setup, which features a sturdy 608 Bearing. The ideal printing orientation for this filament guide is evident in the pictures with the white model prominently displayed. A variation of this design includes an LED hole, which houses a 12V LED with a built-in resistor that I sourced from Amazon. To my surprise, it works seamlessly with the 5V system. Currently, I have it configured to illuminate when filament is detected.
