A reel stand to mount on top of the frame. A 5/16" bolt or shaft in the gap will act as an axle.
I made this after seeing several other designs on here. Didn't see this design, but I would not be surprised if one showed up. I wanted to decrease the footprint of my printer.
I will say this is not the "best" design. When the extruder is nearing the top of the frame, and if the spool is too full, it can make a sharp bend in the filament. Potential to make the motors miss a step and lose align
