V Spooler Runout Sensor, Length Counter, TPU Feet

I took a filament runout sensor case from Makersworld (thanks to Filament runout sensor k.grzegorczyk https://makerworld.com/en/models/26713) and modified it to work with the V Spooler by adjusting several dimensions. I also modified the PTFE guide bracket (from V-Spooler Fyrby Additive https://makerworld.com/en/models/98832?from=search#profileId-105442 ) to be able to mount a distance length counter so I know how much is left on the spools. Finally, created some TPU feet for the base and for the motor mount. (Still waiting on my 24V motor to arrive so I can wire it up to a DeWalt battery.)

Inside the filament runout sensor, just notch the PTFE tubing so the filament is exposed and the sensor arm can be activated. You may have to bend/tweak the sensor arm a little bit to get proper adjustments. For the distance meter, simply remove the 3 guide studs on the side, cut off the bevel from where the studs are inserts, remove the original spring clamp bracket, and cut off the other part of the clamp under the orange wheel. The bracket to mount the distance counter is slotted to allow for fine tune micro adjustments depending on your printer so that the orange wheel is able to spin freely without rubbing.

Material required:

PTFE tubing

PC4-M6 x2

M2x16 screws x4 (used for the filament runout sensor lid)

M2x8 heat nut inserts x4 (used for the filament runout sensor case)

1/8" x 1/8" brass compression union (drill out center so PTFE tube can pass through)

M3x6 screws, lock nuts, washers x2 (used to attach the support bracket to the PTFE guide)

M3x12 screws, lock nuts, washers x2 (replaces original M3x16 screws for PTFE clamp)

M3x4.2 heat insert nuts x4 (two for PTFE clamp replacing the nylock nuts, two for the tube guide to mount the distance counter bracket)

M3x8 screws, lock nuts, washers x2 (used to attach the distance counter to support bracket)

Rubber traction tape (place on inside of orange wheel for filament traction)

Let me know how this works out for you, appreciate any support and feedback. Thank you!
