Creality CR-6 SE Replacement Spool Holder

thingiverse

I'm working on building an upgraded spool support for the CR-6 SE with bearings, but as a step along the road, this is a basic replacement for the spool support. It twist-locks into the arm that comes with this model (and presumably other) Creality printer(s). You may be able to print it without support, but it does work pretty well with Tree-style support (from the bed only) to handle the overhangs. I tapered the top section so support shouldn't be necessary at the top. Version v1 requires support to print well and has a slightly loose fit. V4 fits with reasonable tightness and can be printed without any support. Version v5 prints without support and also engages with all 4 pins in the support arm for a stronger connection. The fit is reasonably snug for the ones I've printed so far.
