Ender-3 Filament Waste Squeegee
by Thingiverse
Last crawled date: 4 years, 3 months ago
After modifying my Ender-3 to be direct drive I found the X axis had a bit of extra range to the side of the bed. Using this space I designed a waste tray and squeegee to make priming the nozzle a quick and clean process. No longer will you have to remove the extra plastic lines on the print bed from priming the nozzle.
In order to use this you will need at least 248mm of range in your X axis. You will also need a piece of silicone for the squeegee part. I used a piece from an automotive detailing squeegee but any piece around 2.75mm thick will work.

You will also need to move the display over in order to leave space for the tray. I designed a simple mount to move the display over here.
After installing you can update your print starting gcode to clean the nozzle before printing. I'm using this gcode at the moment:
M80 ; turn power on
M73 P0 ; Reset print progress bar
