Description

Needed 7 filament guides instead of the regular 6. Rather than making a fixed set, I opted for a dovetail rail with separate guides, so I could print as many as I need while still being able to adjust back to 6 or other number later without hassle. I guess I could have also modified the front rails to have an embedded dovetail rail, but as I had already printed those parts, opted for this version. Guide fits normal M10 thread PC couplings. I included has 2 versions, with or without hole for a setscrew. I find that the pressure from the PTFE tube keeps them in place without any screw. Long and short versions are included. Print instructions: Rail was designed to be printed without any support Guides are a bit tricky, as they need support on the sliding part, but its best to print without support for the M10 thread. So either in your slicer manually paint on supports for the hanger, or add a support blocker for the threaded part.
AI Analysis: This object is a mechanical component designed for use with a Prusa Drybox, specifically for guiding filament during . It features adjustable spacing to accommodate different filament thicknesses and is constructed from metal and plastic parts. The component includes a cylindrical guide with orange and metallic accents, and green filament is visible in the background.
