I Replicated That Print After Swapping the Stock Extruder on My Anet A8 Print Settings Printer: Anet A8 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 35

These parts allow you to add a x-axis cable chain (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2104821) to your bowden extruder on the Anet A8 without needing the extruder end part on the cable chain, but you will need a 4mm bolt and nut and to drill a 4mm...

I'm a helpful assistant screw that propels the filament smoothly into the extruder. ...Typically, whenever I switch filaments, threading them through the extruder usually gets hindered by the tube connector.

I revised the upper section of the extruder motor, requiring a switch to the opposite side. ...The job is complete!

You'll be able to install your stepper motor for the extruder onto the X-axis using this mounting bracket.

This video provides a visual examination of the filament feed system's functionality, specifically its connection to the extruder.

... be updating it soon. The design can accommodate either two extruders and another component or three extruders altogether. ...Edit: The thing broke off when I was adjusting it, so I came up with a revised version that supports two fixed extruders.

***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*** This modification involves cutting down the extruder heatsink. In my opinion, the increased airflow more than makes up for this, allowing the extruder to run at least as cool as it does...

Thanks Pierrelesek for sharing a brilliant support extruder design on Thingiverse, specifically the L3K model found at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:512338.

I'm looking to add an M4 screw holder for my extruder fan mod, and I need a 10mm long screw for the job.

... assistant screw that helps the filament go through to the extruder. ...Most of the time when I change filament, and I tried to thread the filament through the extruder it bumps into tube connector. ... UPDATE (01/02/2019): Dimensioning problem solved.

A makeshift fix for my crippled extruder fan, I'm using an adapter that lets me slap an 80mm fan onto the shell of the old one. ...It's no ideal solution, but it gets the job done.

This support provides easy access to the extruder, making it simple for users to swap out filament whenever needed. ...The design is based on the original LeoN model found at Thingiverse, with a straightforward modification aimed at enhancing usability.

Features: The best thing about this setup is that you can adjust the extruder height easily while printing with just one screw, allowing you to keep the hotbed in a fixed position without needing an extruder sensor. Extruder trays enable quick...

I wanted the LED illumination from my printer without the constant distraction of the continuous extruder fan noise when not printing. This switch plate has perfectly resolved the issue. The switch I utilized was the...

All approaches I've seen so far have a problem: either the heatsink is removed (in my experience, this leads to dusty filament) or the heatsink fan combination hasn't been properly secured to the extruder. In my design, the heatsink fan combination...

I've taken precise measurements to ensure optimal performance, and I'm thrilled to report that the bolt nearest the extruder only reaches a scorching 38C (a comfortable 20C ambient temperature, with my trusty extruder running at a sizzling 260C). If...

Here's a Little Twist on an Idea from Kelle8 on Jan 24, 2017 (ID:https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2057295) UPDATE: I've tweaked the constellation of lines between the A8 sign and added a slight angle to one side. You'll need: -1 x M4 metric screw...

A Fresh Take on https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2249215 The Design Gets a Second Life Major Overhaul: 1. ...Splitting the two parts opened up new possibilities. 2. Upgrade to a 15mm fan, giving you more cooling power than ever before.

... Little Trick .... ... To Stop the Extruder Fan, Use a Micro Switch (Inverter Version) The fan will always be stopped at the X Home position, usually used at the end of printing. Simple and efficient! ... .STL File of Fixation Included, to Be Adapted

I installed a skull design on my extruder fan cover, courtesy of hadoko from Tech_Junkie's fan cover tutorial. ...This modification should provide enhanced protection for the fan's exterior compared to the wire mesh guard that originally came with it.

I was tinkering with my 3D printer when I noticed that my extruder had begun to produce strange sounds. ...Determined to get to the bottom of things, I decided to take it apart and see what's causing all the commotion.

Here is a custom-made bracket designed specifically for an extruder mounted on the Z-axis, with the aim of replicating the settings found on the Ender 3. Notably, in this configuration, the PTFE pipe will be shorter than usual. ...The design's...

A detachable cable holder attaches securely to your extruder carriage, keeping wires safely away from the flowing filament. ...To facilitate customization, a detailed Fusion 360 model is provided, allowing users to modify it as needed for optimal cable...

The part needs to be cloned in Cura. ...One duplicate must be a mirrored version of the other. Mount two parts together using a 3 mm diameter, 50 mm long bamboo skewer. Secure the LED strip (three LEDs) to the surface, ensuring it faces the extruder.

The original design was too large for the extruder carriage, so I made adjustments to fit it snugly beneath the x-axis belt tensioner. The bearing performs exceptionally well, gliding effortlessly like smooth, melted butter. ...As a result, my prints...

This support helps to keep extruder cable in place and prevent motor connector problems...\r\n\r\nUse 2 x M3 x25mm Allen screws\r\n2 x M3 washers\r\n2 x M3 bolts\r\nAlso use the 2 M4 screws from the printer.\r\nPrint with support enabled.

After mounting, I started the printer and pressed the "Home" button while the extruder moved towards the limit switches for both the Z-axis and X-axis. This caused a lot of chatter from the Nema-Steppers, and everything came to a halt. The laser...
