Filament Grease Box v2 - Filament Cleaner
My Makerbot Rep 2 was driving me absolutely insane - constantly stopping extrusion at approx. 10-15% print. I tried everything from cleaning the extruder and drive wheel, to slowing the print and messing with temperatures, to replacing the thermocouple, and nothing quite bit with it. That's when I tried to oil and clean my filament before feeding. Now, I've been getting consistent prints for about 2 weeks. At first, I had just put a piece of tape with cotton soaked in WD40 to test proof-of-concept, but I wanted something a little more permanent. I noticed that many of the pre-existing filament cleaners didn't have mounts to keep them in place, so I decided to make my own.
