Hi, I have printed a small holder for a Bowden tube to print from my filament dryer outside of the enclosure, but the filament coming out of the tube is tensioned and I don’t know if it will cause problems later. Is this fine to keep or how can I fix this? This i a Ender 3 V3 SE btw.

    What type of a spool holder you have in the dryer? It might be a good idea to get some bearings in there to help the spool spin as freely as possible.

      Recommend this. Have a similar setup and you can 3d print spools and order bearings for them. That being said my direct drive filament feeder on my prusa is quite strong. As long as you make smooth curves with your bowden tube it should be ok.

      It comes with 2 spinning tubes so it does spin freely
