Swiveling holder for filament sensor

prusaprinters

<p>I wanted a holder for the filament sensor. My spools are very close to the side of the printer, therefore the holder had to swivel up and down.<br>I found an igus-bushing that does the swiveling, although this is most probably overkill. A simple 3D-printed-joint should be fine.</p><p>The filament tube into the extruder had to be shortened, that way I also save a bit of space widthwise.</p><p>For the holder of the filament sensor I just used the holder of <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/social/42659-rockytoptim">rockytoptim</a> with two screw holes, see remix for files.</p><p>The installation is a bit tricky, as you have to partially disassemble the extruder, but it is worth it.</p><p>The swiveling works well, and the filament can now also be loaded easily with just one hand.</p><p>Printed in PETG, the sensor holder in PLA.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
