Description

PDF

The idea was to relocate my spool and use bowden tubing to get the filament to the sensor.  I made two types a back mounted (shown in green) in case you did not want to use the pivot that comes with the CR-10SE.  I made a front mount (shown in red) that screws into the pivot mount on top of the CR-10SE.  Added the Fusion file to help with your changes/remakes.  

Designed to use the PC4-M5 quick fittings.  Amazon Link

The back mount can reuse the screws that came with the CR-10SE.  The front mount requires the use of longer screws to reach the pivot mount.  The are countersunk M3.  I found some 30mm that work great, but are a little long.  

*****Warning:  I am not 100% thrilled with this design. Filament binds on occasion going into sensor.  Working out kinks…if anyone has a suggestion would love a comment or two.
