Lulzbot filament tube holder remix

thingiverse

Modified version(s) of http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:914983; I found that one did not hold onto the tube consistently enough, so these are a few different attempts I've made to improve on the design. I honestly don't know why the Taz 5 doesn't come with something like this; I'm not sure if somehow I'm doing something wrong but my filament constantly gets stuck and grinds 'til it's jammed if I don't have these in place. When I upgraded to a dual extruder toolhead (which is a lot of fun btw) I had to print another of these before I could get any real prints to complete because the extruder that didn't have one would always stop extruding before it completed. I tried several versions of this before I got this one; I might make the holder a touch bigger if I did it again, but it's good enough that the tube doesn't come out and doesn't seem to snag while printing either so far. Print Settings Printer Brand: LulzBot Printer: TAZ 5 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: just about anything Infill: 15-25% Notes: Make sure you lay it on its back so you don't need to print the supports; I probably should rotate it in the STL files, but I haven't.
