Description

PDF

I printed and used the original, and all was well, until I needed to take this shroud off several times for working on the hotend. Over time the screw head got stripped out on the screw that's covered up down inside the shroud, and the only way to get access (to use my Dremmel tool to cut a slot in the screw head, since the Allen key was no longer affecting it) was to cut the whole shroud off. That's when I knew I needed to remix before reprinting.

This remix has three M3 screw holes for mounting, instead of two, and they are all out in the open, accessible in case of issues like what I ran into.

Note: I also made a version of this for the CRtouch, which is incompatible with the BLTouch version of the shroud. Both versions are provided here. 

Also note: All the photos shown, are from the CRtouch version. The metal mount bracket seen used for my CRtouch, came with the CRtouch.

 


The following is copied and pasted from the original listing.
