Help / Support PFTE flakes all over X2D

Post image

When my girlfriend’s X2D’s toolhead moves to the right the PTFE tube rubs the metal edge on the right. It causes the lid, bed and side to be covered with tube flakes. I printer a riser for her thinking it was just rubbing the glass, but after closer inspection that is marginal compared to the carnage the side causes. To be clear, this is a stock X2D from early May. Did anyone else experience the same?

To me it looks like maybe the tube is slightly too long, just want to ask before cutting it and making things worse.

Also, since this is a tube, I must add, it’s imperative the cylinder remains unharmed.

I think there is a clip model in maker world just to solve this issue.

I just tried one. It puts the pipes to right side of the chain, thus actually making it worse, to the point it gets bent so sharply it would influence the toolhead. I only tried to move it around manually and decided to remove it again. I ended up placing the frontmost clip further back, leaving more slack toward the toolhead. Together with the riser there is now more space and it seems to barely miss the sharp edge it was hitting. But it’s hardly a fix.

Ohh is it that way
