Filament Guide for top mount

This is my own creation of an filament mount, since I moved the filament spool from the top of the control box to the top of the printer.
I did not like to watch the filament touching the printer frame and therefore I created this guide.

There is room for improvement, so I might go for it and if someone likes I added the fusion360 source file. Feel free to adapt it to your needs or remix it for improvements.

I used 2x M4x12 screws and 2x M4 t-nuts to fix it on the upper part of the frame.

The length should be fine for spools up to 10cm width. Due to the long arms the opening to insert the filament does not need to be wide. The opening can be opened very easely to allow the filament of both 1.75mm and 3mm to be inserted.

So far I have the feeling that there is no need for fear that the filamen might jump out of the guide, it is pushed to toward the extruder and due to this toward the frame.
