Another filament spool holder for sitting on the CR-10 control box.

I tried some available on thingiverse and they worked for the most part but occasionally the roll would pull off.

I decided that I wanted to create some that would have the roll sitting much lower into the spool holder to prevent the roll from falling either forward/backwards or sideways.

I created this from scratch using openscad(I have included the scad file if anyone wants to modify them).

So far I have had no issues with these holders.

I am using these on the CR-10 mini but I believe that they will fit on most versions of the CR-10. The width of the control box should be 125mm. This could easily be changed though for different control boxes.

Unlike some similar holders the two parts that make each stand are not symmetrical, as such there is a holder_outer and holder_middle you will need to print two of each.

You will also need 4 of the 608 bearings, these are very common(and cheap) and can be found at many DIY shops. They are also commonly used in fidget spinners and skateboards.

To join the two pieces together I just used superglue.
