Ender 3 Filament guide/cleaner

Last crawled date: 5 years, 9 months ago
This is a quick filament guide and cleaner I designed for my ender 3. I have a lot of dust where I print, so helps keep it out of the nozzle.
The cap clicks on and off easily.
This mounts to the top bar of the frame using standard t-nuts with M4x15mm cap head screws for the extra length needed.
This is best used for top mounted spool and direct drive hotend/extruder set up. You could mount it elsewhere on the frame to potentially suit a bowden tube set up - but I have not tried that out.
Use a couple of pieces of standard washing up sponge inside the housing for cleaning the filament - don't mack it in too tight as it will restrict the movement of the filament.
I printed 20% infill, PLA at a relatively high speed, and came out very well.
