Description

Overview: I designed a Bracket to hold a filament run-out sensor i bought off ebay. When the filament runs out, in this order it will: 1. Pause the print 2. retract filament to stop oozing, 3. move the head away to allow filament change 4. resume back where it initially stopped. Properties: - It slips over the Extruder, and also has a cable holder integrated. - The design allows it so you can use a small amount of PTFE tube to make it easier for the filament to guide into the extruder motor. - Sensor Light up green when there is filament detected You Will Need: -Sensor: AliExpress: https://goo.gl/FutpoC -Connectors for Raspberry pi: http://r.ebay.com/9g8yce -RaspberryPi running Octoprint Setup Steps: 1. print out Filament Sensor and Lid 2.
