I printed a shorter spool holder for the Flashforge Finder 3 a while ago as accessing the back spool holder like many others is not convenient and its not going to change with the AD5MP, the amount of spool holders for print and comments in groups would (you would think) lead printer manufacturers to move the loading to the side. Having said that I see the AD5MP loading tube seems to be at the corner so that at least is an advancement lol.
While my AD5MP is getting delivered in the coming few days I thought i would look for something similar. After printing the original file I felt that the thinner spool holder would be a bit thin so I remixed the profile for the AD5MP with the thicker spool off the FFF3 file.
I dont have any cad software skills so I apologise for the butchering of the remix but I felt that having some length down the 5MP would benefit the spool holder as I can see from footage online it does jiggle about a bit at speeds.
I will update this thing with a photo of the holder in place once my AD5MP arrives next week :) The print image shows the original 5MP with the thinner spool holder and the new remixed on the left.

Notes:
I dont think ite needed to print at 40% but for extra rigidity why not. I also extruded the original 5MP file to accomodate the thicker spool part. I will add a bit of nano tape to the bottom of the holder to keep it in place on the side of the printer.

I used the thicker spool older from one and the profile hook from the other to create a more stable holder for the AD5MP
