Revised Chep creality hotend insert

thingiverse

This is an improved design on the CHEP creality hotend insert Why use this insert over the original? This revised insert ensures that your PTFE tubes are as alligned as possible. The allignment is important because if they are not alligned your filament could experience resistance or get cought on the gap in between the inserts. the is a real possibility especially when retracting. What is the difference? I designed the insert from the ground up. I didnt change the original model, but i changed the design. I made a new model and made some circles where the PTFE tube can be slotted into. Original design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4220059 note: because thingiverse removed the ability to see which model something is remixed from I took matters into my own hands and will from now on post a link to the original designs I remix from. removing the 'this model is remixed from' box not good for navigating, so i hope you appreciate that i put the OG design into the description 3-4-2020. if you found this revision of the CHEP hotend insert usefull and you want to support me please donate what it is worth to you to https://paypal.me/Rikdenbreejen. I would appreciate any amount and it would really help me out. If you do donate please state your thingiverse name and which model inspired you to donate and i will list your name in the donation tab on the model. Print recommendations: Print with a raft to ensure that there is no elephants foot. Print with supports (not required) Print in PETG or another higher temperature plastic (not required... PLA also works fine)
