Description
Here is a modified version of Zach's Plastruder design. These layers replace the ones inside the MK4 plastruder to help guide the Idler Wheel. This keeps it straight and on target. I have managed to crush filament without so much as a crack on the acrylic idler wheel.
I still wouldnt recommend crushing filament just because you can...but this will atleast keep you from replacing an idler wheel every so often.
NOTE* The rendering engine on Thingiverse makes the files appear wobbly, but when loaded into the proper software they should show perfectly round.

I'm glad to see that the thingiverse has reached the point where large upgrades and replacements of entire subsystems for a machine that can make more things.
Singularity here we come.
WHHEEEE!
