Bolt-on Flashforge Creator Pro/Powerspec Ultra Filament Guide

thingiverse

There are already a few designs of the filament guide for these 3D printers available. Most if not all are two sided (for left and right extruders) and installed with the existing straps. In my case, one of the straps is broken and I can't use it. Therefore, I designed this simple single-sided bracket which is bolted on. It is very sturdy even at 5% infill. To install, you unscrew the original plastic parts and replace with this part (use the same screws). You then slide the filament tube through the eyelets which hold it in place by friction. I use 1/4" OD polyethylene tube, but I think 6 mm OD tube should work fine. Note that you must print this in vertical orientation. Otherwise it will break easily because of the low z-strength.
