608ZZ Bearing Hanging Filament Spool Mount

pinshape

I designed a hanging spool mount specifically for my workbench and printers. I salvaged leftover bearings from the fidget spinner craze, putting them to good use. Filament flows smoothly off the roll. Required Components: 1 x 5/16 Round Bar (Home Depot) - Cut to 108mm (https://is.gd/oXKu1k) 4 x 608ZZ Bearings Printed Components Needed: 3 x HangingSpoolMountBearingSpacer.stl 1 x HangingSpoolMount.stl 1 x HangingSpoolMountEndCap_45mm.stl 1 x HangingSpoolMountEndCap_40mm.stl (optional) Supports are necessary for the bearing gap. STLs are print-ready and oriented correctly. Print Settings: Printer Brand: Prusa Printer: i3 MK3 Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 30% Notes: I've tested the mount in both PLA & PETG. Recommended Infill: 30% Grid or Gyroid Perimeters: 3 min Supports: YES (Only needed on the HangingSpoolMount.stl) Step #1 - Cut Round Bar to length. (108mm) Step #2 - Assemble the 3 bearing spacer and 4 bearings on the round bar. Step #3 - Insert bearing assembly into the hanging mount. Step #4 - Screw on the threaded end cap. 45mm or 40mm, your choice. Step #5 - End cap assembled Step #6 - Mount the hanger. Designing This Was Done in Fusion 360
