Reverse Bowden Holder

Model originally uploaded to Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2347799.

A simple reverse bowden holder.

Edit 1: We changed the sleeve, so we needed to change the bowden clip. Added two in fact. One for the new sleeve (Reverse Bowden clip V1.1) and added one that can be mounted using the screw next to the breech. (Reverse Bowden clip Screw) Be aware that the screw then might need to be longer, as the clip will add 4 mm to the required length.

The Nimble is a direct drive extruder and does not need a bowden tube, in fact it replaces the need for a bowden tube all together. But some people like to guide the filament to the Nimble using a kind of reverse bowden tube. This holder will fit over the drive cable and the other end will hold the bowden tube over the breech opening of the Nimble. The same part can also be used at the stepper end. Separate clips are available to clip the reverse bowden tube to the drive cable along the complete length and hold the wires (for hot end and fans) as well.

With an installed weight of less than 27 grams on your carriage/effector the Zesty Nimble is smallest and lightest extruder you can buy, it has ample torque and can be mounted in multiple orientations.

The Nimble is available from Zesty Technology.
