‘requesting a design that allows 4 non-ams ptfe tubes to go into the ams-filament-hub feeder.’
purpose it to have 4 spools partially loaded into the ptfe tube. when unloading pull out a little bit (instead of all the way) and when loading push in a little bit (instead of filling in filament from the start of the ptfe tube)… Would require 3 more ptfe tube connectors) either make a extender bar from left to right to attach to the top of the z-bar (where some people are making handles with 1 ptfe relocated) or just on the handle it self. or even used the one already that comes attached. have ideas in my head but terrible at CADing.

Something like this wouldn’t work?

I should have been clearer its for the a1 mini.(so the hub is already there.) I wanted mounts for the other end of the ptfe tube-hub. aka fill the hub with 4 tubes but anchor them to the a1 mini frame then to 4 spools.

I’m not following since not familiar with the A1 Mini. If you post a sketch or drawing showing what you are trying to do it would help (at least me) know what you are looking for.

Hi picture of the idea I have.

As this will have no electronics or mechanical elements, are you aware this will only be manually operated?

Are you planning on pushing/pulling each material in and out as required yourself?

As luck will have it, I came across this video yesterday:

Jump to the 4 minute mark to see how it works. I know this doesn’t directly address the OP’s request, but fingers crossed maybe the design will turn up on MW Global site.

what I wanted but more minimalistic since I already have spool holders. but would be willing to print this thing out or maybe just the side attachment. going to give it a try.
