I was concerned about the filament dragging across anything plastic on the switch, since thousands of feet of filament being pulled over that could wear a divot in it and cause it to eventually fail. The switches with brass wheels are kind of hard to find on amazon, but here's the one I managed to locate:

The buzzer: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083 ... UTF8&psc=1
The on/off switch: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CQ ... UTF8&psc=1
Battery leads: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GN ... UTF8&psc=1

Any link to the stl file(s)?
Re: Filament Empty Alarm
I do have a metal arm on my switch but I agree a roller end like yours has is a better choice and would recommend going the route to anyone making one of these.pyronaught wrote:I was concerned about the filament dragging across anything plastic on the switch
