Ender 3 - Direct Drive Adapter - Room for wheel spacers + wire mount

Model originally uploaded to Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4135507.

Update: Added a wire mount by @bhuynh2012 from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3909083. The top part of the wire mount can also be found there.

I chose this initial design because it doesn't take away any Z space compared to some other versions that have the motor at a 90-degree angle.

The mounting holes are made bigger to fit the round metal spacers on the carriage. For me, they fit perfectly. Bit of force was required with some pliers to push the metal spacers in place but overall a nice snug fit. Added some fillets to ease out some sharp corners. Print orientation as shown on the pictures.

Now I use retraction settings 0.2mm and seems to work fine. Already better results with stringing then I had before I switched to this mod.

Could use a cable fixture somewhere.
