I did find it annoying that the Bowden-tube is not firmly attached to the Space Pi!

So i designed this simple connector, that does exactly the job without damaging the case.

It uses a air-tube quick connect fitting for 6mm tubes and M6 thread, you can buy these anywhere (amazon, eBay...).

Assembly:

for the assembly you need:

  • the printed connector and washer

  • a threaded M6x6mm air-tube fitting

  • 13mm-& 10mm wrench (13mm can also be a ratchet with nut)

First stick the connector with the threaded top through the hole on the filament release, put the washer/spacer on top and screw the air-tube fitting in per hand, then use the wrenches to tighten them (don't over-tighten!) 

Et voilà!

The Connector is tapered at the bottom so that you can insert the filament easily. 

Two tips at the end: 

  1. if the filament does not go smoothly though the fitting, just drill out the hex-opening on the inside to 3mm.

  2. for insertion it is easier to disconnect the bowden tube quickly from the fitting and push the filament through.

Have fun drying and printing!

PS: yes, i included the step-files and the freecad file, as everyone should do...
