Need Advice: Filament Tube on a Wade's extruder
July 04, 2014 10:37AM
So, I'm finishing up my Prusa i3 Rework build and attending to the details. I bought some tubing to use as a filament guide, but I have absolutely NO idea how to use it. I'm using a Wade's Extruder w/ jhead hot end, and a sgrabder melamine frame.

Help, please?

Cable tie one end of the tube somewhere on your printer. Put your filament through it and into the extruder... The filament will hold it in place against the idler block. You can print a new idler block with a tube support, but this isn't necessary.
