PTFE/Bowden Feeder Tube for Adventurer 3

PTFE/Bowden Feeder Tube for Adventurer 3

Description

After looking at some great design ideas I decided to design my own model in fusion 360. I used this mechanism to mount my teflon/Bowden tube, feeding from my filament dry box, onto my Adventurer 3. The intention was to have little choke on the Bowden tube yet still have the mechanism hold firmly onto the tube. I did 7 tests and this was the final product I came up with. It works great and firmly holds the tube in place easily feeding the filament into the extruder while staying firmly onto the printer. After some my first few designs and tests I found that some corners of the model were clashing with the printers frame, Additionally the model didn't hold firmly onto the Frame, I proceeded to make some adjustments. You may need to adjust the position of the screw hold and/or the back clip height which is set to 4mm (for the width of the plastic). *Thanks to Dinkytoyz for the inspiration - https://www.thingiverse.com/dinkytoyz/designs*
