Ender 3 - Direct Drive - Filament Runout

This is a rotating (2-Axis) filament runout sensor holder. I attached it to my ender 3 w/ direct drive but should work for a bunch of 3d printer configurations

I was looking to design something that would follow both the spool and the hot end simultaneously.

It uses 2 of the common 608ZZ bearings on the axis.....the parts fit snug together but also added allowance for M3 screws w/ washers to keep it together

You will need M4 screws w/t-nuts to mount to a standard 20x20 extrusion
