Description:

Yet another simple Filament cleaner, that snaps together with four 6x3mm magnets.
Nothing special, but i got somewhat annoyed by my current hinged one, when switching through filaments in quick succession.

Of course i could have searched for some existing solution, but wheres the fun in that?
Also i needed a use case for those magnets anyway. ;-) So i “threw” this together and printed it all in all in under 1.5hrs - hence the "QaD" nickname.

Can also be used for oiling in case some material likes it.

Fits to a PTFE Tube on one side.
If interested, i'll add one with PTFE mounts on both sides.
 

Printing:

Just print with 0.2mm Profiles
Set Perimeters to 3
Top/Bottom Layers 5

Post Processing:

If needed give it a slice with a file on the contacting surfaces

Insert four magnets on the corners, and make sure the orientation is correct.
Mine did fit snuggly tight, but i placed a small drop of superglue, just in case.

Cut some Sponge or Makeup pad into two pieces of 15*30*~3,5mm, and trim two oposite corners, where the magnets are.

Done
