***0.12mm layer height required***
After having problems with filament hanging up where it exits the splitter I wanted a design where the PC4-M10 connector could sit as flush as possible with the bottom of the hole. Most designs I've seen use a chamfer to make the model printable, but this creates space for the filament to wander just before it hits the MC4-M10 connector.
To fix this I used the forced bridging design trick to keep the bottom of the threaded hole as flat as possible and printable. I designed the model to print with a 0.12mm layer height, and slicing with a different height doesn't look like it will work.
I could also feel a lot of resistance pushing filament through the curved path, so I made one path completely straight to attach to the AMS and straightened the external spool path as much as possible.
The ends use PC4-M10 connectors. You'd probably be ok without one on the external spool inlet if you only have 2 spares.
*I had to clear the exit hole just a little by twisting one side of a pair of clippers in it to get the filament to exit the adapter smoothly.
