CR-10S/Ender 2 Filament Spool Holder REMIX

thingiverse

I fell in love with the design/concept of the spool holder created by edgarp (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2431355), but encountered difficulties gripping the edges when trying to remove the holder from the filament spool. Using their provided dimensions, I remixed it with some significant changes: - Added 5 mm of flat space on both ends of the nut and base. - Introduced notches along the edge for easier grip. - Increased the overall length of the base piece by 6.5 mm to better fit my CR-10S spool holder (32 mm diameter and 82 mm length to threads). This allows the stock spool holder nut to securely hold this addition in place. Please note that with the increased length of the base, both the stock CR-10 spool holder nut and the nut on this piece cannot be tightened as tightly as possible. One needs to be slightly loose for the spool to spin freely. If you have any comments or suggestions, please don't hesitate to let me know! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiJpWQYig1U Update 1: I added STL for Ender 2 spool holder. The only changes from the CR-10S spool holder are decreasing the length to 78 mm from 82.5 mm. The nut remains the same for both spool holders, but the base will change. Update 2: I added STL (BaseV3-with-internal-nut.stl) for a new and improved spool holder base that works with both CR-10S and Ender 2. This version includes internal threads replacing the stock spool holder nut so you no longer need to use the stock nut to secure the base onto the Creality spool holder. The length of the new base is 81 mm.
