After installing the Sprite Extruder SE on my Ender3 V2 Neo, I found that when the print head was to the far left or far right (depending where you route the cables) it would crush the cables between the extruder and the vertical extrusions unless I moved it out the way.

I am trying to make use of the full build plate (with professional firmware) and this was causing the auto bed leveling to give inaccurate readings on the right.

I designed this simple guide to bolt directly on the extruder motor and route the cables over the top and out of the way. Much prettier than my previous zip tie + bolt solution. The trade off is a loss of Z height at the top - but I haven't even been close to printing that high.

The cables clear the cog at the top just fine with the height given by the filament guide.

Please post a make if you print it!

I'm new to modelling - any feed back appreciated!
