Large Filament Spool Holder

Description

#Hey there,

this is a holder that is designed to hold large filament spools. In the base version it can hold spools with a diameter of about 40cm but you can also scale it up.

It is designed to work with or without 608z bearings. If you want to use bearings you have to use metal ones. 3D-printed bearings deform in the holder.

I've printed the holder with PETG and 15% infill which worked quite well.

I haven't tried PLA or ABS but I expect that they will work as well.

##You need to print the following parts for the base version:

6x long_bar

2x short_bar

2x edge_connector_l

2x edge_connector_r

2x top_connector

1x roller / 1x roller_wo_bearings (The latter is a roller that fits the holder without bearings)


#Building the holder:

The parts are connected by placing one of them on a flat surface and pushing the other one into the connection from the top (see photo for reference). They fit together quite tightly so be careful to not pin
