Top mounted filament guide for Wanhao i3/Maker Select

prusaprinters

<h3>Why?</h3> <p>When the filament is mounted on the control box (which is safer and more stable than mounting it on top of the Z bridge) the filament grinds against the frame and can cause under-extrusion.</p> <p>This filament guide is optimized for use with the spool on the control box.</p> <h3>Features</h3> <ul> <li>Mounts using existing holes on the Wanhao i3 V2.1 and probably all recent Maker Select models</li> <li>The filament hole is beveled outwards to provide a smooth path from all directions</li> </ul> <h3>Open source</h3> <p>The original design (fusion360) is included, so feel free to improve it.</p> <h3>Requirements</h3> <p>Requires 2x M5 bolts with a threaded length of at least 10mm.</p> <p>Longer is possible, but be wary of your Z-clearance!</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Wanhao</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Wanhao Duplicator i3 V2</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>.2mm</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>20%</p></div> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>Printed in PETG, but PLA should work equally well.</p> </p></p></p> Category: 3D Printer Accessories
