Thank you
Thank you
I forgot to add that I would recommend the hex coupler box be checked also for using the clutch in collator plates. With those selections and hex coupler about all I see missing is prox sensor housing and thread insert when the zip file is generated. Also spring adapters are missing because a spring size was not selected.
But all parts are in the download folders from TylerRs download link in his posts, if you have not got it downloaded already. Also the manual was a huge help to me getting going, had to read it several times to catch it all.
I like TylerRs collator plates better than those made with the parts generator/collator plate generator. They are in his collator plate folder.

PS: The Parts Generator does get you TylerRs collator plate(s). The Plate Generator plates are different from what I can see.

I am pretty happy with the new Ender 3 v3. For years I have been manually bed leveling. This makes it so easy and first layers are nice. Maybe your estimate is a little high. Time will tell.

You had me going there for a while.....what you show doesn't work because the Alt version of the drop tube is opposite the regular drop tubes. The alt is made to mount directly to the drop hole screwed to the underside of the collator bowl, then the spring tube mounts under the drop tube. If you want spring to go on top you need to use the regular, not the alt drop tubes.
For a bullet drop, starting under the bowl, mount the Alt drop tube......the long spring adapter mounts directly under the Alt drop tube ..... then the spring tube .....then the short spring adapter. Then you can mount a large or medium or small "J" which slides over the bullet feeder die.
"J" is the "Spring_Drop_Tube_X" bottom part in the picture below....in this case X is "medium."

@calgarysparky: If you really need such a thing for the Alt version......I can probably make one. Maybe cut and paste from two other parts....been done before in this project.....TylerR mostly, but I've done some too.

Thanks, printing the larger drop tube now. What would be kickers is that although tube being 40mm shorter due to the angle the case chute is at.

Hate it when I talk like my wife, LOL. Here are a couple of pics. I use the alt for case feeding and it would be good if it could be shorter. The white tape is what I would like to shorten it by. I gotta tweak my cad skills some to modify thes by myself. Would be looking at the 11 and 13 tubes to mod up.
Getting ready to print the wall extender this afternoon. Instructions say no support req'd but that looks like an awfully long unsupported area at the bottom?? I'm thinking it may need some minimal support. What say you experts?
print it upside down so the forks are to the top, no supports required.
duh, thanks. I must be all giddy & excited with this new project....lol
TylerR had now redone the light sensor version shorter on all of them. I would rather have the height in the part, myself, and change the angle and presentation of the collator the I needed to, like I did in the picture below:
But moot point now. Pretty rare to get this kind of service anywhere.....

You are looking for the alt drop tube without the prox sensor, correct?
