Anet A8 Spool holder (no extra parts)

thingiverse

Another Anet A8 spool holder made entirely from 3D printed parts, needing no additional bearings or components designed specifically for standard 1kg filament reels. The design features an angled structure that allows for effortless placement and removal of the filament reel. Two interlocking parts will hold the reel in place, secured by its own weight but can be reinforced with glue if desired. A 30% infill was used on the supporting bracket to enhance its strength, while the spool barrel was printed at a lower density of 20%, although this may be further reduced. Support is required for the build plate touching the spool barrel bracket void. This spool holder was specifically designed for my Anet A8 clone, which exhibits some size variations compared to the original model. You might need to adjust the spacing of screw holes to fit your A8 frame's unique dimensions.
