Summary

This is a filament guide for the Wanhao i3 V2, angled at 18 degrees. I designed this because the Z-brace mod was getting in the way of my filament.

The filament comes from the spool on the power supply, goes through the guide and into the extruder. The hole is chamfered from 7mm to 3.5mm to allow a PTFE tube to be jammed in to provide a smooth filament feed, but can be used without a PTFE tube.

Use M3 x 10mm screws to mount on the left side of the printer. You might be able to get away with using the stock M3 x 5mm screws that came with the printer, but I don't think the screw will quite make it into the thread.
