Bowden and cables guide for SmartrapCore with geared extruder by BrunoBellamy

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

I was inspired by Darhf's bowden guide (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:928224) : I needed that kind of thing because my Bowden tube and all the wires bend with their own weight.
But as I used my geared extruder (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:678833) the Bowden position is different. So… I really had to design one of my own, so here it is. :)
I also made it tall enough so the tube and wires can be actually guided, and not only held together in one point, and made sure the shape would really prevent them from getting out too easily.
I've been using it for some time now and it's quite an improvement. :)
Update : I've added another version of the same device that holds the Bowden and cables a little further away, thus leaving more room for the printing head (and most of all the printing zone ventilation system), to avoid collisions in some cases.
