This is version 2 of my simple filament guide for the Original Prusa i3 MK1 or MK2. Like the first version, this guide lets you leave the filament in a box while printing, making filament changes easy. Improvements:
As before, the guide has a channel at the top so you can remove the filament from the guide without removing the filament from the extruder. It also has a shape that prevents the filament from slipping out of the guide accidentally.
I printed it in black PETG. I added the holes in the riser to prevent warping while printing. I've been using this filament guide daily for months with no problems.
Update: Version 3 is 5mm shorter to fit inside my enclosure.
