Anet A6 Filament Bar Clamp Jaws

After struggling with filament changes on the Anet A6 (even with an extruder button), I decided to try using a clamp. This inexpensive 4" bar clamp requires minimal effort to depress the extruder spring and frees both hands during filament changes. Big improvement.

The photo of the clamp on the bed shows the original orange jaws for reference. The photo of the extruder shows positioning of the clamp.

The modified jaw pads accomodate the screws on the extruder head to help hold the clamp
