Bearing Spool Holder (Tevo Tornado Z Axis Bearing)

thingiverse

This is a bearing spool holder specifically designed for use with the Tevo Tornado. To make full use of its capabilities, remove the Z axis bearing from the top of your printer and install it here - it's also highly recommended to replace your Z axis bearing altogether in order to improve print quality, making this an ideal solution for that task as well. The bearing itself is a flanged 16mm outer diameter, with an inner diameter of 8mm. If you own a Tevo Tornado, please take a moment to verify that these specifications match those of your printer. To assemble the holder, position the flanged side of the bearing facing downwards so that the spinner piece can rest securely on top. Use tape to secure the base to any surface you desire - I personally attached mine directly to my control box. The pegs are designed to be adjustable in order to accommodate spools of varying sizes, simply press fitting them into their respective holes. The ideal inner diameter range for the spool is approximately 47-87mm.
