Successful 4-Way Filament Adapter

I was having some challenging times with filament passing through the original adapter, so I designed my own adapter with little to no filament friction! I’m very happy with the outcome and can’t wait to start printing. I disabled the wipe tower and have attached a brush at the end of the x axis so I can wipe the nozzle after it purges the next color off the build plate.

Interesting! I had similar problems with sticking in the Y but the 3DClippy solved that for me. I’m interested in your purge bucket setup can you share info on that?

I can't design but I was scouring the web looking for something I liked better than the current Y. I will give yours a shot. Good job.

I'll keep you posted. I'm working on a remixed 3D Clippy for the Anycubic Korba Max, so I can get rid of the brush on the side of the bed.

I didn't realize this was only a video. Do you plan to post the STL file somewhere?
