Ender 3 Extended Side Spool Mount

thingiverse

This is a remix of a side mount for the Ender 3. The original design was not quite long enough, leading to the filament spool fouling on the stepper motor and/or cables. This remix adds an extra couple cm to the length, allowing filament spools to clear the stepper motor properly. I was amazed what an improvement this makes to print quality - the printer is much more stable with spool mounted low (rather than on top), and has substantially improved the print quality.
