Ultimaker BowdenFeeder Repair Kit
Description
You have an Ultimaker and your bowden cable popped out of the material feed mechanism? Here is the solution: This clamp goes on top of the material-feed-mechanism (MFM) Two holes must be drilled to fix it in place. FEATURES: * It can be mounted preventatively so that your wood clamp teeth don't break in the first place. * It has round edges, so you dont hurt yorself. * It has Internal structure and is printable in reasonable time. * It makes it harder to move the gear by hand and to get your fingers between the gears. * IMO It looks good. The more elaborated background story: I destroyed mine by printing black PLA (IMO more diffecult than transparent white or magenta). The extruder-motor lost some steps here and there for a loong time (no filament scraping! the gear really jumped back). When it suddenly got worse I helped the gear with my hand a bit. But that was too much force then :S . I recognized the damage not before the extruder-motor started to pull on the electrical cables. That was a close call! <b>edit:</b> Roman Jurt made an alternative version http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:40544
