Description

PDF

This is a simple holder for the filament runout sensor of the SV08 if you want to relocate the spool holder to another position, for example to the left side (pictured).

The holder is fastened to the top assembly, using one (or two, see below) of the screw holes meant for the enclosure. The filament sensor is attached to the holder with its original mounting insert and an M3 countersunk screw. There is also a hole for a heat insert to optionally use the lower, horizontal screw hole in the SV08's frame for additional stability. 

The holder can be attached on all four sides of the frame, either in the middle or in the corners, although the optional lower mounting hole will only work in the center position on the left and right sides.

Printing:
I printed the holder in PLA at 0.2 mm layer height, with 3 walls, 20% infill, with supports and no brim.

Bill of materials:
1 x M3x11 mm+ countersunk screw 
1 x M3x11 mm countersunk screw
1 x 6 mm pneumatic connector
1 x 4.5x4 mm heat insert (optional)
1 x M3x11 mm+ flat head screw (optional)
