I wanted an easy way to mount the Filament spool to my Kossel with Openbeam Extrusions without needing to get the wires out of the way.
The spool can easily be changed with one hand in no time.
It runs freely on 2 printed Ball-bearings designed by user blecheimer.
It is designed for a 38mm or 48mm spool hub
although it can easily adapted to smaller and bigger spools (drop me a comment if you don't want to do it yourself)
Please see the instructions tap for how to print this thing.
Edit 05/2014: added support for 608 Bearings
Edit 05/2015: added support for 3030 extrusions with 608 bearings
Parts you need:
You need to print 2 Ball Bearings made by blecheimer (see "remixed from") I needed to print the inner part in 104% to get it to run tightly.
(Edit: I've added the option for 608 Bearings)
Print the parts uploaded here, select the correct spool hub for your purpose (I printed them with 0.2 layer height and 0.3 infill).
The file "Filamentlager" needs support for printing.
