Since I bought a filament dryer (Sovol 3D) I had some issues with tension on the filament input on my Anker M5. This was related to the angle filament entering the machine.
(Sovol 3D)
So I resolved that by using the original filament holder, which already worked fine but since I added this Filament guidance spool it goes even smoother.
When doing higher pints it might happen that the filament falls of the spool, to resolve that I added a Support over the spool.
(Thanks to HiShak for pointing this out!)
It looks like the support has a nice opening to guide the filament trough, I would not recommend this, this will add more friction to the process. I just added some empty space to save filament.
