AnkerMake M5 Spool Holder

thingiverse

Filament Spool that uses the original rod/screw that is included in with the AnkerMake M5 printer. The larger spacer is meant to be on closed end of the rod and the narrow part should be towards the bearing to keep friction from the spool. The smaller spacer could be replaced with a 6-12mm diameter washer. Requires 2 Skateboard/Rollerblade bearings. 8mm x 22mm x 7mm. Assembly: Place larger space on rod wide side against end-stop. Slide bearing down rod until against spacer. Insert 2nd bearing on into the flat side of the spool. Place rod through spool until rod is through the 2nd bearing. Last install narrow spacer so its just barely seated on rod. Install rod back on printer mount, you will have to apply pressure to rod end stop while tightening screw to keep from spinning. Make sure its snug, and spool spins freely. I've attached Images that may help.
