Ender 3 Direct Drive Prototype

This is a shroud for an ender 3 direct drive. It is a prototype, and may require some modification for your setup. It works well for me. This was never meant to be public, so download if you dare. Screws in with one screw and friction fits on the rest. the screw is meant to be one of the extruder stepper's stock screws; you unscrew one of the four, attach the shroud, and thread the screw through the shroud back in to the stepper.

Print instructions

Orientation isn't the best when printing. This model wasn't designedto be printed many times easily, just one time for me. This means it can be a hassle. I chose to print it with the front facing side pointing upwards, and the flattest face (The edges) on the bed. It requires amny supports this way, but it results in a smoother outer look and a more stable print. you can print it upside down, with the face on the bed, but you'll need to sand it afterwards to look nice. The shroud is 2mm thick all around, so keep light bleed in mind for white filament.
