UPDATE (21/01/2014)
I have added a single guide version with several offsets to chose from (25mm - 75mm)
ORIGINAL POST
I have always found the Replicator 2X filament guide tubes to be a pain when changing spools etc. It does not helped that the spools are behind the printer with poor access.
I have been using the new system for a couple of days now and it works better that I could have hoped. I can change and route the filament blind how, so no more need to pull out and rotate the printer when changing spools :)
NOTE - When printing with the hood on the uppermost guide needs to be slipped 180 degrees to run under the conduit - very easily done.
There is a video here showing how I set it all up -
