Mosaic Palette Scroll Wheel Tower by SublimeLayers

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

The Mosaic Palette and Palette+ use a scroll wheel to measure the filament. This is connected to your extruder with a length of PTFE. This tube must not have sharp bends and should be relatively short. Large delta printers are a challenge with placing the scroll wheel. So I got the idea to mount the scroll wheel on a rotating base (find that here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2395627) to track the delta effector as it moves up/down and all around. I found that the best place to position the scroll wheel was 1/2 between the base and top of the delta. So I designed these brackets to mount a 10mm x 10mm extrusion as an auxiliary tower on which to mount the scroll wheel. The photo should be self explanatory (it is difficult photographing a 500mm tall delta printer like this in close quarters!)
