UP Mini Extruder filament guide mod

thingiverse

This mod helps the Mini extruder perform better with less jams and issues over all. The only catch is it has to be changed regularly since it is ABS plastic and will deform over time (after 5 or 6 prints). If you notice gaps in the layers of your print then it is time to change the guide. Just print 4 or 6 of these guides and change them out regularly. Instructions Print this model in "fine" mode and solid as possible. I recommend printing them on a machine other than the Mini that will print true solid models or as close to it as possible. The mini does not print very solid models which will make this model fail quicker. I print mine on my Davinci printer which does a fair job of printing solid models. Check for filament alignment through the extruder when you are done to make sure there are no issues with the new extruder filament guide dimensions. It works good on my Up Mini but you should check your application for alignment.
