A8 Easy Filament Access Gate and Supports
Description
This Is A Rehash/Remix Of My Original "Easy Filament Access Gate. The Extruder Wires Always Seemed Vulnerable To Me And After Having An Heater Block Worked Loose, I Decided The Wires Needed Support..And Also I Wanted Them To Look A Bit More Tidy. I Have Got Rid Of Add On Fan Covers As Separate Items And Added A Right Side Panel Which Covers The Motor Etc, And Has A "Clip" To Hold The Extruder Wires And At The Top A Couple Of Holes To Allow A Zip Tie To Be Threaded And Hold Teh Wires In Place - Above It A I Made A Piece That Fits The Right Top Bearing Block ( Extended The Holes Because I Found Some Bearing Slightly Different But Mainly To Allow It To Slide Right A Little To Be Directly Over The Lower Clip. The Filament Access Gate - I Always Found Liable To Pop Open, The Arm Cannot Get Much Longer ( I Tried) But Gets To Big To Actually Slot In At The Side Of The Motor - So I Have Added To The Top, A Part Which Can Allow A Simple Rubber Band To Slip Over And It Works Ok For Me! As A Newbie I Found It Hard Getting To Change Filament.. This Gate Makes It So Easy And With Practice... If Your Anet Board Allows "Pause Printing" - It Is Possible To Change Filament Colour And Continue Printing.
