Hi, there

Since my printer got a nice and huge housing, I needed a filament guide.
The search on Thingiverse gave a thousands of versions, but all of them
were for a specific printer, a specific case or just over engineered.

So I use my recently growing FreeCAD skills and build my own simple
design.

I added three different versions. One without a cut and two with a cut
for on the fly swapping the filament. The cut is diagonal to avoid
loosing the filament. I added two directions of the cut for optimal
guidance.

All versions are suited to guide 1.75 mm and 3 mm
filament.

However the cut version probably needs a little force to get filament
bigger than 1.75 mm though the side gap. If you need a bigger slot
just adapt the sketch using FreeCAD.

Both FreeCAD files are included, so you can modify the design if needed.

Happy Printing.
