Creality CR6 CR-6 SE Filament Run-out sensor Housing with PTFE entrance and exit and no logo
Description
This is not the slightest bit original. RICBRU did all the work. I just wanted a top without a logo hole that would allow dust etc in and I also wanted PTFE instead of printed lines for the filament to go through the exit into the extruder. I deliberately made the PTFE exit hole larger than the original entrance hole the RICBRU made because I knew it would be hard to get out the tiny piece of PTFE if I wanted to change it. You need to use a little hot glue as I have. That way, if you want to change the tubing, just scrape the glue away and it will slide out. I also champhered the PFTE tubing ends with a countersink bit on a drill. I made the modification parts in solidworks and then used meshmixer to add/subtract them to the originals (it forced me to learn how to use meshmixer for the first time). Sorry about the large file sizes, I went for quality over file size! UPDATE: added a bolt to hold together the bit between this and the extruder and a slightly tighter tolerance on the exit PTFE tube..
