Ender-3 V3 Top Spool Holder With Sensor
Description
A top mounted spool holder for the Creality Ender-3 V3, including roller and filament sensor bracket. Whilst I think the Ender-3 V3 is pretty excellent, Core XZ element means that Z homing includes large up and down movements, which pull a length filament off the reel, which then has nowhere to go when the head moves back to the bed again. With the provided set up, filament gets pushed out to the back right hand side in amongst the main wiring, and is a bit of a mess (and could theoretically snag). Finding a way to get a top spool holder and the filament sensor working together was… “fun” (clips flying off the frame, belts screeching with jumped gears, X homing trying to go into the next room etc.) but I think I've bagged it with this setup. It seems to work for me so far, but only time will tell. I'd love any feedback on this. ### Additional Parts You'll need two additional M3 bolts (M3x8 if you are only using the Sensor Bracket, M3x12 if you're also using the Camera Mount) and an extension cable for the Sensor. After some false starts I eventually found the perfect cable which doesn't need making up or soldering. If you search for “XH 2S LiPo battery balance extension lead” at 200mm length in your Favourite Online Store that should fit perfectly. Just double-check the images to be sure (2S means 3 pin for some reason).
