Bigtreetech Smart Filament Sensor Holder

thingiverse

Wanted to install the BTT smart filament sensor on my Ender 5 but I didn't want it just dangling in mid-air. Other sensor mounts that I found require you to replace a part of the housing or repackage the electronics within a new housing. As appealing as that is from the perspective of neatness it is simply too inflexible given that I need to remove the sensor to unblock jams in the feed path from time to time and these mounting options require you to remove a lot of screws to do so. This design is a simple clip/unclip one. I designed this simple, clip-in holder to keep the sensor well secured and allow it to feed directly into the extruder. As you will see from the pictures, I am using a BMG extruder but the holder should work for the stock one too if you mount the sensor after the extruder.
