About this print

An ergonomic button that fits over the extruder arm on the Anet A8 printer, making it easier to press the component when loading or removing filament. It reduces discomfort from repeated finger pressure during filament changes. Printing this part at full infill improves its durability, and PLA or PETG are both suitable materials for a functional component that sees regular light-duty use.

Original maker's notes

By dryas on Thingiverse · CC-BY-SA

A simple button to make it easier to change filament by pressing the screw on the extruder to release the filament and pull it out/put it in. Your fingers will like it. ;-)

Should be printed with 100% infill!

Printing Extruder Button Anet A8

For Extruder Button Anet A8 we would normally reach for PLA — it is the easy, economical default and suits the majority of models. We set the layer height, wall count, infill and supports to suit the model and how you will use it, and those choices are already priced into your instant quote. Want a specific colour or material? Tell us and we will match it where we can.
