RigidBot Filament Support

Slightly modified version of RigidBot Extruder Support Spacer by Kebes22. This updated design adds a small raised edge under the extruder gear cutout to fill in the gap where NinjaFlex was getting stuck between the gear and the support piece. To use this part, align the extruder gear with the raised edge of the support part carefully. Like the original version, you'll need two short M3 flathead machine screws. I had trouble finding these locally so I cut down longer screws instead. Update 8/5/2014: A new revised design has been added that features small improvements to make it easier to use. Unfortunately, I haven't re-tested NinjaFlex since the original version worked flawlessly for 3-5 hour prints without any issues. The new version may deliver similar results. Additionally, an STL file is now available for the bearing washer used to offset the bearing slightly; this file includes two washers but you should only need one.
