Hi! Hows going, mate? I reeeally liked your design but I dont have easy acess to not even a M3 Nut in my country! The cheapest one I could find would cost 3 dollars a piece ("in this economy???"). So I was wondering if I could print and use the design and keep everything in their stock place. The filament sensor and the chain. I am only looking for the ventilation and more room for the PTFE tube to move. Would it be possible to do that? If not, do you have a design of your own that I can use keeping everything stock?
Thank you so much for your time!!! Wish you the best <3

@HugoVinicius_3092478 Hey! I'm working on new projects for our printers. 😉 Thanks! You can use this back wall - [a]_x1_WALL_V2_BACK.stl. However, you'll need to use bolts with the hinges. You can use a regular nut if you prefer, but the bolt must be longer.

Great design and upgrade for my K1C. Printed in PET-CF and ABS.

Looking really good!!! Thanks for sharing 🤩

o dont know if it only me, but i dont can put the led housing in it place, has like 4 mm of gap between the riser and thes things, i dont know how to put it well, due it make out squere all the riser

It took a while to print but what a problem solver this is!!
From factory it just scratches the plastic lid like crazy with every print.
after i installed this no more scratches! i love it.
and now it has a hinge for the lid as well !

Thanks for sharing your experience and final result. 🤩

Party in my K1C
I went a bit crazy used an old ARGB kit I got for my Computer
printed the Vent in Transparent

Thanks for sharing the final result!!! Great 🤩

I have the problem after printing that the screws on the corners don't fit. I'm missing about 2mm for the screw to fit properly. I printed with PETG and I think the shrinkage on the PETG isn't right. Do I need to set something? Shrinkage XY and Z to 101%? (edited)

Filament sensor wiring question. Mine is not long enough, it just goes to the original hole in the back, Are you all using an extension?

Hey, I'm trying to figure out which is the best riser to go with. What's the reason for going from 35mm to 50mm in riser hight?

@Dreadwill_2676222 Hi! I made the 35mm for those who don't have space for more. The 50mm is better for ventilation.

Hopefully PETG would be good enough

Hi, how do you connect the filament sensor cable? It falls short. Everything is great, very good design.

@BigChungo_2315305 You need to remove the bottom cover and cut the cable ties holding the cable. There’s enough slack in the cable.
