Hi, just found your post - sorry for the delay and thanks! I don't use Fusion so STEP is the best I can do:
excellent, thanks

What‘s the difference between V1 and V2? Does it depends on the version of the magnetic filament sensor. I have 1.7b… What should I use?
Thank you for your great job,
Pierre -
No more support needed! Another happy user of the magnetic rotary filament sensor with your housing! After 1,5 years of frustration and useless parking… Thank you so much!
Kindly regards, Pierre

Apologies for the slow reply! Glad it's working out for you

I am trying to print this redesigned housing, but I cannot get open the V2 stl files. Have tried simplify3D, cura and mesh maker. I think the source may be corrupted. Does anyone have working versions of them?

@Dave-Parry Where and how did you download the files? Github can be tricky, you must right click on the RAW button and save as...
-
@Phaedrux Thanks, thats what I did, But would'nt open in anything.
Have managed to import the step files into inventor and then save those as STL's. Just printing them now. Fingers crossed.
The V1 files also wouldnt open, but there is a link above that worked, but my magnet is 2mm so I think it's V2 -
Hello,
Great job with this housing design, it works way better then the original housing but I have one request. Would it be possible for you to modify the exit side of the filament hole in the housing so that it tapers from the hole size you have at the start down to the ID size of the exit tube. I find that the filament gets stuck on the edge of the tube more times than not. I could modify my own housing if I had the cad file.Thanks

@thaug29 They are designed in OnShape, and available here: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/411d70b025239cbb231798cd
I don't think @Lo-Fi has done a V3 version yet.Ian

@droftarts Ok, thanks I will check it out and see what I can do.
