Compact Siddament Filament clips <0.8g filament
Print Profile(2)


Description
This is a revised model based on the ideas of my first version here.
Main changes to the first version:
- Considerably more compact at only 2.4mm thick (excluding pins) and only as wide as it needs to be. Making it more AMS friendly, espeically the AMS 2 Pro with the changed guide fin location.
- Filament Channel is now butted against the spool wall, preventing the filament from falling out.
- Harsh corners are smoothed out making it less likely to snag when feeding etc.
- Uses <0.8g filament per clip!
There is currently two versions:
- The “3-Hole” version. Suited for the regular spools used with most standard filaments. “V1 Plastic spools”
- The “6-Hole” version is for the chunkier spools coming with the Nature3D Crushed/V3 filaments.
- A third version for the new Siddament Reusable Spools to come once I get my hands on one.
Each one is labelled with a number to indicate the spool type it is for. The 3-hole version has slightly smaller pins which are closer together.
Printing:
2 Plates configured per profile. One with 3 copies as a quick 15 minute tester, and another with 24 for bulk printing.
Can easily print 50+ per plate if you wanted.
Slicing:
0.16 mm layers are best, recommend 3+ perimeters and >30% infill (I use 100% infill by setting bottom layers to 10).
No supports needed, the number label is easily bridged.
PETG recommended as a minimum for stronger pins and heat resistance in a dryer.
Design Idea:
The Zig-Zag filament mount allows you to easily push the filament in, or pull it out from the side. Since the channel is wider than the filament, it takes only little effort. But due to the Zig-Zag it is held in place firmly when left alone.
The channel is butted against the spool wall preventing it from popping out unexpectedly.
Mount to the right side of spool (when using with the ORIGINAL AMS) to avoid collision with AMS guides on the left. Works perfect on the right side. AMS2 Pro not tested, but the size, position and shape is based on other AMS2 friendly designs so let me know if you run into issues.
NB: May also be a challenge to install on full spools, especially ABS. I have minimised interferences as much as I can while maintaining printability.
