I recently noticed that my print quality suffers a little bit if I have the filament holder standing on one side of the printer (uneven pull); it also unnecessarily occupies desk space. So I designed this spool holder that clamps to the top bar of the Anet A8 and utilizes two skate bearings that rest in seats to create a smooth running 'quick release system'. **It uses three aluminium tubes**: 8mm in diameter, two 170mm in length (for the clamps), one 150mm in length (for the axle) – saves...

I received my order of filament refills from DAS FILAMENT today and wanted to add the info-sticker they provide with each coil to the [Little MasterSpools](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2791930) I've already printed. This is my solution. To attach this addon to a Little MasterSpool you need a zip tie with a max. width of 2.5mm. It is also a good idea to attach it before you put a refill coil on the spool, otherwise feeding the zip tie through the holes gets a bit fiddly. Model on...

I've just finished my small custom core-xy printer (for now; it'll definitely receive some upgrades) and wanted an equally compact spool holder to go with it. ##You need: - **4 x tubes/rods** with a **diameter of 8mm** and a **length of your choice** (mine are 114mm (100mm space for the spool + 2 x bearing thickness) anodized aluminium tubes from the hardware store (bought in 1m, cut to size)), but it doesn't hurt if the axles are a tad bit shorter (clearance). - **4 x 608 bearings** - **2 x...
