If you are like me and dont have space in the back to either collect the purge in a bucket or make it reach around to the side or bottom to collect it there then this might be for you.

Add capability to purge into a internal bucket that is then removed from the inside. Removal works fine with but all the way up or down. I tested various positions in between which worked sometimes better or worse but i guess there is not much need to empty the bin mid-print.

Recommendations

  • support generation needed for the area where the wiper rests on
  • to match the case sunlu/jayo grey PETg, Polymaker dark grey PETg/ASA
  • when inserting the M2 Inserts its beneficial to press some flat metal piece from the inside against the holes to prevent the M2 Inserts from pertruding to the inside
  • The M2 Insert for the Flap needs to be flush with the inside surface as the Screw is ment to bottom out on the insert
  • For PETg or similar using the stiffened Top Part is strongly recommended. The nozzle wiping otherwise creates significant flex in that part.
  • since the purge can soften or melt the upper area of the Top part it can be beneficial to add a bit of aluminium tape to the inside as a heat shield.
  • For use with the internal spool mod please use the thinBucket version

What you need (BOM)

  • 5x M3x3x4.2mm Heat Inserts
  • 3x M2x3x3.2mm Heat Inserts
  • optional: 
    • Metal flat-edge, spatula or similar flat metal piece
    • Alu Tape
  • ~150g of filament
