About this 3D model
Allows AMS system to be plugged in one of the Y and 1 for filaments on the side mounted roll. Making it easier to load from the side, those filaments that don't work with the AMS, like TPU. This need support. An be made with integrated support. But looks worse. The mount on the side sticks out a little to make it friendly with the spool on the side. https://www.printables.com/model/560164-poop-shoot-and-spool-holder push the TPFE tube in as far as it goes. It helps reduce the friction on the inside of the Y. It is designed to fit standard push on fittings. I got mine from the local hardware store. If you don't know how these work. You push on the end (the ones I have are blue in the photos), then Pull the tube out, while it is pushed in.

Some fittings allow you to push the tube through the fitting. Some fittings stop the tube. The ones I got from the hardware do not. The link above does allow the tube trough. I flared the end of the TPFE tube to make it easier to insert from the side with a screw driver. This flaring is only for the side tube. The end from the side does not need the fitting. Not a problem if you have the right fitting that allows you to feed the tube through. You will need to replace the screw that was holding the side panel. the new screw is a M3 x16mm long. Was designed for a socket head cap screw. But you can use many head types.
