Brackets for Securing Auto-rewinding Spool Holder

prusaprinters

<p>I absolutely love the auto-rewinding spool holders, but the only place I have to put them is on top of my Ikea Lack enclosure, which works great, until you want to open the lid. I designed these brackets to secure the spool holders to the surface. The fit is designed to be extremely secure, but I also tried to keep them minimal enough that if you really desire to pry the spool holders out of the brackets you can do so without unscrewing them.</p> <p>The f3d file incorporates the source files for the auto-rewinding spool holder generously provided for Vincent Groenhuis (I designed these brackets to fit perfectly by basing the design around the spool holder source). <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/168-universal-auto-rewind-spool-holder-mm">https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/168-universal-auto-rewind-spool-holder-mm</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>I printed mine out of PLA. I think any material will likely do, but if you do intend to muscle the spool holders out of them post-install then keep that in mind and don't use an overly brittle material.</p>
