Anycubic i3 MEGA top bracket for TUSH

thingiverse

When you already have the TUSH (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2047554) on your Anycubic i3 MEGA 3D printer and you wanted it on top of the frame of the printer, you can use this bracket. Of course this can easily be modified to attach on other printers. You can also glue them together to become one holder for each side of the spool or just use it straight. Once it is on top, it is sturdy holding the TUSH. You can easily detach it to adjust to the spool size. I just noticed that the bearing on the TUSH is very easy to roll that the motor won't even have a hard time pulling the filament, in fact it is lighter load for the motor than the original spool holder that came with the printer and you don't even need a filament guide with this setup. When the spool is rolling as the filament is pulled out, I did not notice any vibration because of the bearings, so there is no unwanted movement that will affect print quality. The filament sensor with its ball joint held by a magnet can be reposition facing towards the right front side receiving the filament from the top with ease. With an enclosure like what I use, the new location of the filament keeps it warm and in good condition all the time while printing. If you only print with PLA or does not use any enclosure, PLA material for the bracket is just fine.
