This is an improved filament runout sensor mount for the CR-10.
Revision June 1, 2018: I have just modified and uploaded a new revision *- which has a thicker base plate for more resistance to long term strain from filament tension.
I have constrained the filament path to the minimal it needs right up to cutaway for the lever of the switch to move. I have created a path that should lead right into your extruder at the right height and position. I have specifically designed it to work with the EXR Struder by SeeMeCNC, but it seems to align well with stock and aluminum versions.
Be sure when screwing it to the 2 screws which mount your bearing on the Z rods, that you dont tighten the screws too much this may constrain the bearing from moving into the most comfortable position for it to allow for free movement.
Also look at my tape fix for the metal switch lever, this is probably the main reason every one has problems inserting filament.
I did make it to mount a PFTE tub
