Bambu X1C Y-Pipe Splitter with Inlet Side Push-Fit

Description:

This Y-Pipe Splitter allows you to easily utilize both the Bambu Labs AMS and the standard spool without PTFE tube disassembly.

Background:
Brandon's Over-Engineered Y-Splitter is fantastic, but the insert action on the inlet side is not always as smooth as I would like which occasionally results in binding. Sanair's PC4-M10 remix solves this, but as a trade-off Sanair's outlet side is too long which deforms the X1C's rubber boot. It is also unnecessary to install a PC4-M10 on the outlet.

Therefore I remixed the two to create a Y-Pipe Splitter which uses PC4-M10s on the inlet side, and Alex Maxe's release ring on the outlet side. This solves the issue of deforming the rubber, as well as inlet side binding. The filament action is super smooth!

I also included a printable spacer to make it easier to use a standard M3x20mm screw, and get a tight fit to the machine. Use the spacer outside facing, not the inside.
