This was inspired by http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1624641 but that took quite a lot of plastic, so i set out to design an ultra light spool support. So here is the result, about 6-7 grams a piece. I've had a few 608z bearings left over from some older project (those are really cheap) so used them for smoother spool movement.
- Print two pieces for one spool or 3 for two spools (number of spools +1).
- They are symmetrical with respect to the spool, but not symmetrical with respect to the bearings
- Clamp the bearings with M8 nuts
- When replacing the roll just slide one of supports off the skewer, leave the nuts and bearing in place
UPDATE
This design is obsoleted by a new and much simplified http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2169547 . Use this if you want super smooth rolling with 608 bearings.
