Top Ender 3 filament guide

thingiverse

I have updated the design to include trays and an improved slide bracket for attachment to the top rail, as seen in filguideV2.stl. Due to its size, ensure it's centered on your build platform and that your clips provide sufficient clearance for the nozzle. A perfectly level build plate is also essential. Supports must be positioned 0.2mm apart, which can be achieved using Cura's block supports feature where the bolt enters, eliminating unnecessary supports and simplifying your workflow. This revised design is a remix of an original creation. For optimal performance, slide it in about one inch only. By utilizing the upper area, I've minimized desk clutter while maintaining functionality. A smooth-shank bolt replaces the wheel to prevent jamming issues, and a slot for filament passage has been added. The original designer's work served as a solid foundation, which I built upon by incorporating these enhancements. A quarter-inch diameter bolt is used, but any similar-sized bolt with a smooth shank will suffice, provided it covers the area where the filament touches and remains smaller than the hole.
