This is my setup to reduce the width of my printer to fit into my enclosure I am building. I rotated the spool of filament 90 degrees so it's less wide. It adds another filament runout sensor for my raspberry pi, uses bearings and rollers and the existing filament holder tube that comes with the vyper. All attached by a clip on base with a lid with lego like holes to attach my pi case. Also has an arm for the pi camera.

The dotbase.step file is for merging with the back of your favourite pi case stl file so you can plug it in (ca glue), it's just 2mm cylinders in a 8x8 mm grid. The camera mount was inspired by https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4994599, it sort of screws on, but likely its a metric vs imperial thing, so I created another cap. I also created an extension for it, print off as many as desired to place the camera. The hole the filiament goes through is fit for a capricorn tube, likely overkill but I had some handy.

Added a remix of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3733099 cool pi case.

Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Anycubic

Printer:

Vyper

Rafts:

Doesn't Matter

Supports:

Yes

Notes:

Most things can be printed without supports, the cam extension has captive cap, so I use custom columns in cura for that one. infill is not critical, the rollers could be filled in more, no need for 100% but it will be wedged into a bearing.
