In Action:


The “Brush Cleaner with adj mount v6.stl” is tested and seems to work well.
A thicker and maybe more durable variant “Brush Cleaner with mount v6 thick.stl” is also available but being tested…  Feedback is welcome.

For a look at the Original Model (https://www.printables.com/model/462473-prusa-xl-series-nozzle-scrubber-brush-update-now-w) for more on the concept.  These clever little bits enable you to use a wire brush and clean on every tool change.  My version does not require any Hammer Nuts, an M3-10 is optional to lock it down even more.  An M3 can thread from the bottom to adjust the brushes up if you have shorter brushes. 

Fully compatible with the reccomended surfalex2000 Debris Bins:

Model origin

The author remixed this model.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

Rather than use M4 Hammer Nuts, this is a more minimized design.  It uses a Twistlock just like the Cover-Clips that were used in the XL Semi-Assembled.  An M3-10 bolt can be used to Lock it in place and prevent any sliding (although I don't think it's actually needed).  For those of you with short brushes, an M3 bolt can be threaded from the bottom to adjust the height up.

So it's adjustable, doesn't require any Hammer Nuts, just print and go. It's fully compatible with surfalex2000's Debris Bins:

Which I highly recommend.
