"Easy Filament Access Gate". This is both a useful modification and a very useful method to access filament to change colour - and this can be done during the print either by amended G Code of the simple option to use the "Pause Print! found in the Anet stock board menu.
The extruder hotend wires always seemed - so I decided the wires needed support..and also I wanted them to look more tidy.
I have removed need for the add on fan covers as separate items and added a right side panel which covers the motor etc, and has a "clip" to hold the extruder wires and at the top a couple of holes to allow a zip tie to be threaded and hold teh wires in place - above it a I made a piece that fits the right top bearing block ( extended the holes because I found some bearing slightly different but mainly to allow it to slide right a little to be directly over the lower clip.
The filament access gate - I always found liable to pop open, the arm cannot get much longer ( I tried) but gets to big to actually slot in at the side of the motor - so I have added to the top, a part which can allow a simple rubber band to slip over and it works.
In Cura use the "Tree Support! to cater for the gate "arm" and the holes, other than that use your prefered setting.
Each is a single .stl file and can be printing single or all 3.
Time to print etc is based on all 3 printed
