When using an Hemera on the Creality CR-10, you don't need the original extruder. So with this setup you can have a "reverse bowden setup" which is really nice. When having the spool on the side, this prevents the toolhead from jerking on the filament spool when moving fast. I prefer this over top mounting it, cause heavy spools on top can lead to more ringing. Also, if you have a BL Touch you have a Z endstop switch you don't need, so I used that.

Mounts where the original extruder would be on the CR-10. I just used zip ties.

Use a little stub of bowden tube as a nice inlet guide.

Cleaned up the holes for the filament with a 2mm drill bit.

Used short M3 bolts and just threaded it into the plastic to secure it down. Same with the lid.

Print settings:
0.2mm layer height
0.4mm Nozzle

Supports: Prusaslicer, supports only on build plate. The threaded holes seem to do fine without support.

You need:
4x short M3 bolts
2x 4mm bowden couplers M10
Original CR-10 Z endstop switch.

Extra info:
These are the clips I used to attach the wires to the bowden tube.
