Printed on the X5S before switching to a direct drive setup.

You'll want to re-orient the models for better printability. The guide should be printed as an "L" shape, looking down onto the bed. The spool-holder-bracket should be printed with the longest flat side down on the bed and the shorter side, which is mounted to the t-slot, will rise straight up off the bed.

The spool holder needs no new hardware, simply remove the existing bowdin spool holder and re-use the bolts and t-nuts.

Slice a 2mm piece of the bowdin PTFE tube off and put it in the filament guide.

I'm using this with:

Titan Extrude
Titan Extruder Pancake Motor
Volcano Heater Block

For the fan shroud, I did not use a magnet, I just drilled a 3mm hole and used a 3mm bolt to hold it on.
