Filament filter and guide for Anet A8 reel holder.
Description
Couple Updates To The Design. I Made A Cap That Has The Threads To Fit The Ptfe Fitting. Also Now Have Ptfe Fittings On Both Sides Of The Filter And Changed The Mount Around. Now Running A Ptfe Line Down From The Reel Holder To The Printer. Works So Much Better. Remember To Add A Drop Or Two Of Conola Oil To Lube The Filament As Well As Filter Out All The Particles. Moved The Screws Away From The Center And Also Added A Filter Box Version For Petg. Several Times I Had Prints Wrecked By The Filament Falling Off The Reel With The Anet A8 Reel Holder. Originally I Had The Reel Spooling Over The Top. So I Set Out To Make A Guide With Tinkercad. I Was Already Using The Filter Housing From Kezat And Incorporated It In To My Design. Once I Settled On The Spool Coming Off The Bottom The Rest Just Fell In To Place. The Push In Ptfe Fitting Is Sized For M6. This Is My First Real Made Thing And It Is Working Great So Far. It Is Sized To Fit In The Front Of The Anet A8 Reel Holder And Then Screw In To The Back Part With The Filter Housing. Feel Free To Comment As I Am Looking For Feed Back On If There Is Any Thing I Need To Change. The Threaded Filter Housing Is From This Thing By Kezat. You Will Need To Download And Use His Cap To Complete The Filter And Guide. Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:497764
