This is a stand for a specific filament box, namely the Kigima cornflakes 5,7l box - [find it here on Amazon](https://www.amazon.de/dp/B01M7Q4OSQ/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_bUtWFbZAJPMN6) for which I also designed a 8mm rod holder. You can mount an endswitch to this holder which will detect a filament jam in the box as the box will tilt towards the sensor when filament is blocked and then printing will be stopped.

You can mount the stand to a base with upto 3 screws

In my experience this helps the "spool running empty" problem much better than a simple runout sensor, as most spools will not let go of the filament when it runs empty. Of course you can combine this with a runout sensor as well (as do I).

The endswitch used is [this](https://www.amazon.de/dp/B071JV158X/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_F1tWFbDCY09HW?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1)
