This is my version of a filament holder. I have an FLSUN Delta, with a sun gear filament holder on top. Because I had to make an adapter, my filament sits pretty high up. All the other filament guides I've seen tend to be fairly low down or flat, so I whipped this up in Windows 10 3D Builder. Yea yea, what am I doing using THAT?! Ultimately I'm setup running my printer from a crummy laptop, so am not bothering installing anything better on it. I'll get around to using better programs, but that was quick and dirty.
I put a small notch in it to make filament loading / unloading easier. I sized it to 1.7mm based on my filament size, so it's not going to just flop out of this guideway
I've also made up a 90 degree turned version, but haven't had a chance to test it out. The flat one needs no support, but obviously the 90 degree one will.
I printed with at least 60% infill just for strength of the inital version, but you could probably get away with less. I may add small gussets on the bottom to strengthen the connection if it needs it (doubt it at this point).
