Description
(pictures coming soon)
Like many of us, I noticed that the filament was digging a larger hole through my extruder block lever because of the the angle the filament takes when top mounted.
This simple yet effective design takes the idea of @The-Doc 's guide and a printable coupler from my extruder block. Lock in a piece of PTFE tube and let the guide do the rest.
Uses stock hardware. Works with top or side mounted spools.
Enjoy and post your makes!
