Python AMS Front Beauty Covers

Update 1/20/2025: I went ahead and designed up covers for the extruders as well since the original covers made the remaining openings look a bit out of place. The added file for the extruder cover is more of a PITA to print cleanly, but I had a decent enough look with organic supports in Orca Slicer.

I printed the Python AMS 1.03 and decided over holiday break to try and design some “beauty covers” to clean up the front a little. These pieces are a little weird to print and do require supports as you want the piece to be printed perpendicular to the small tabs that clip the covers into place.

I know the Python AMS v1.04 was recently released and I have not decided if I want to print all the main pieces again. As such, I cannot confirm if these covers will be a direct fit for the newest version and any subsequent versions.

To install, I found it best to slide the curved part over the spool gear shafts while pressing the top inner clip into place. Then you can tip the whole AMS up a little and bend the bottom tabs up to push the bottoms of the covers into place.

Note these are designed for a pretty tight fit and depending on the print quality of your machine for these covers and/or the Python AMS parts, you may need to do a little bit of sanding to make sure there are clearances (especially on the lower sides where the Python AMS parts taper out a little.
