Why?

When the filament is mounted on the control box (which is safer and more stable than mounting it on top of the Z bridge) the filament grinds against the frame and can cause under-extrusion.

This filament guide is optimized for use with the spool on the control box.

Features

  • Mounts using existing holes on the Wanhao i3 V2.1 and probably all recent Maker Select models
  • The filament hole is beveled outwards to provide a smooth path from all directions

Open source

The original design (fusion360) is included, so feel free to improve it.

Requirements

Requires 2x M5 bolts with a threaded length of at least 10mm.

Longer is possible, but be wary of your Z-clearance!
