DIY CR-6SE dryer

-In the pursuit to make the best CR-6SE I could based on speed and quality of printing as I compare it to my Anycubic Kobra 3 I found that I liked drying filament (for obvious reason IE: moisture). I purchased the creality filament dryer for 2 spools (since it has rollers pre installed and can be opened easily). I used to dry them then put them on the printer and a couple prints then put it back in to dry for a day or so and it was annoying to have to swap all the time.

-The need for DIY ACE pro like on my Kobra 3 came up. So since my CR-6SE isn't stock already the filament sensor goes where ever I feel so I designed it to fit onto the dryer.

-You need to pop out the rubber plug in the top of the dryer, I used a touch of super glue to make sure it doesn't move the fit is snug but I wanted to make sure no chance of error and no air escaping. Then you can thread in a PTFE tubing connecter M6 the sensor housing is threaded and the sensor is a press fit into the housing with 2 hold down screws. I used Capricorn Bowden tube (for size, quality, price) I also designed a tube guide so as the print head goes up the gantry for tall prints the tube doesn't get hung up. That snaps right into place, then I needed a Bowden tube mount for the sprite extruder im running. it was pre-designed by a fellow designer on thingiverse but im unable to find or tag the maker of that. But it bolts into place and the M6 PTFE connecter screws into that and with the hot end pre-heated the material can be fed through the sensor (taper fit to guide the material easier) and through the Bowden tube into the extruder and you can print anything as required that is now drying and pre-heated for better quality prints.

-15% infill, PETG (recommended due to heat exposure) supports/brims are personal preference. Bed skirt loops x3 to purge filament (my personal preference)

-tested and works with all filaments including flexible filament, feeding flex filament takes more time but doable.
