The spool holder supplied with the Sainsmart Corecepton 300 printer is a sad afterthought. There are several replacements on Thingiverse, but all of those place the spool at the side of the printer. I've always thought that an overhead spool placement offered a more direct and smoother filament path with fewer chances of jams and snags. This is my shot at such a holder, and so far it seems to be working as intended. It includes a very logical and functional mounting for the filament-out sensor as well. It's large enough to accommodate any of the spools that I had on hand, YMMV.
A small drawback to the position of this holder is that it requires space behind the printer, which will be a problem if you need it placed close to a wall. Note that it also requires extension of the filament-out sensor cable.
OpenSCAD code is included if you want to make changes.
