Spool Adapter for Creality Spool Arm Prevents Tumbling and Under-Earthing. I created this adapter because adjusting my extruder steps per millimeter revealed a significant counter drag from the spool, causing massive under-extrusion. The impact was substantial, with approximately 1-2mm of under-extrusion occurring when the extruder pulled the filament enough to initiate a spool revolution but then retracted and re-fed again. This caused the spool to bounce, creating quite a pull and leading to incomplete re-feed. I've only tested this adapter briefly, printing one test piece and putting it into use, but so far, it seems to work well. If you use this adapter, please let me know if you encounter any problems, allowing me to fix the issue and update the download accordingly. The tube part has a length of 80mm with an inner diameter of 31.3mm. Conical end pieces measure 45-55mm in width. 09/07/2017 - Added wider conical nut measuring 45-60mm in width. Added threaded tube without fixed nut, featuring 31.3mm and 32.7mm inner diameters respectively.
