      Hello everyone,
      I bought an Rotating magnet sensor, but i did not know that it is only for 1,75mm Filament diameter.
      I have a Ultimaker 2+ with 2,85mm Filament, so i can't use the sensor.
      Has someone a design for the downpart of the housing for 2,85mm Filament?

        @Novastorm I don't have an official housing for 2.85mm but I am aware of at least one implementation so I have asked if they are able to share. In the mean time I am not sure how proficient at CAD you are but it may be worth trying a version just enlarging the input and outlet hole to 2.9mm and the associated collet locking areas.

        I have added the step files to the github repository here:

          Thank you for uploding the CAD, that helps a lot.
          The redesign won't be a problem for me.

            @Novastorm I3CD printers have kindly shared their design:

              Great!
              I will take a look on their design an choose wich I will print.
              My own or the design from I3CD printers.
              But i think that the I3CD printers made a better work on the Bowdentube connector.
