About this print

A filament guide that clips directly onto the top of a 2020 aluminium extrusion profile, designed for the Creality Ender 3 printer. It routes filament more smoothly toward the extruder, reducing the risk of tangles or binding during a print run. The snap-fit design means no fasteners are required for installation. PETG is a practical choice for this part, as it handles the elevated temperatures found near a running printer more reliably than standard PLA.

Original maker's notes

Update 1/28/2021: It's been 2 and a half years since I first posted this and I'm glad to see people are still finding it among all the Ender 3 upgrades and that it is still working out for the vast majority of you all! Happy printing!

Update 4/27/2020 - Many people have reported this doesn't work for the CR-10, sorry for the mistake.

Update 7/24/2018: Someone asked for a matching right-side endcap so I've added one.

I couldn't get another Ender filament guide to fit on my printer as it required pretty tight tolerances so I made one that just snaps onto the top of the 2020 extrusion.

Formatting may have been simplified. These are the independent maker's instructions and fitment claims; Hark Tech has not independently verified them.
