Description

Loved the original model but i didn't have any of the size magnets that it had cutouts for. So i decided to remix the model by filling in the old cut outs and replacing them with cutouts for 10x3mm, 10x2mm, and 8x3mm magnets. Also added one more spot for a magnet.

 

Note: 

  • 2.75mm thick magnets will work just fine and is actually what i have.
  • If you have 12x1.5mm magnets, check out the original model

 

If there is enough demand i can add more models with even more magnet sizes.

 

 

Text from Original Model:

I downloaded a really handsome AMS cable tidy guide recently that was real popular and kinda shaped like Texas. But once I printed it I found a few issues for my particular use case-- one, I needed it to support using an AMS riser. Two, I wanted it to have clearance for quick release buttons at the AMS junction box. And three, the feed lines didn't quite line up with the AMS junction box on the back of the printer. So I gave it a bit of thought and realised that I could support more use cases by using a couple control points instead of set curves as cable guides, and measured out the most precise feed lines that I could so the PTFE feed tube leads perfectly into the junction box. The upper guide for the AMS power/data cable is segmented so you can exit the run at multiple points if you're running an AMS riser taller or lower than my own. I included models with and without branding so you can look as basic or extra as you like; and there are versions that support 12mm x 1.5 magnets (nominally 12mm x 2mm but I find most of them are 1.5mm deep) and versions without, in case you want to use some double sided tape to further secure it. I hope some of you might find this design useful, thanks for looking and have a great day!

 

ASSEMBLY NOTE-- you'll remove the AMS junction box to install this. Remove the two screws, disconnect the PTFE tubes (at the Bowden connector entering the printer, and at the junction box leading from the AMS). Slide the outflow PTFE tube through the channel exiting the junction box toward the printer, then reattach the junction box to the printer with the original screws and reconnect everything else. Slide the feed PTFE tube through its channel to the junction box. Voila!

 

Shoutout to KobaRiley for inspiring this model. I modeled this from scratch and I feel it approaches the problem in a different manner so I'm not labeling it a remix, but I wouldn't have had the idea for it without trying his cable tidy. So thank you, friend, for your model!
