Anet A8 Spool Holder With Bearings

thingiverse

This is a remix of the original Anet A8 Spool Holder (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1998669).\r\n\r\nI modified it so that it features cutouts for standard skateboard bearings (22mm diameter), allowing the spool to rotate very smoothly.\r\n\r\nEach side of the holder requires one bearing, so a total of two is needed. Additionally, you will need two more hex nuts to attach the holder to the spool; my Anet A8 came with four spare ones.\r\n\r\nFollowing the print, you must press the bearings firmly in place. Simply place the bearing on a flat surface and position the holder on top of it; it takes considerable force to fully seat the bearing.\r\n\r\nFull credit is due to https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1998669 for creating the original design.
