Drill to Filament Spool / Reel Adapter

pinshape

Need help transferring filament from one reel to another for a friend? Want to split your filament onto another reel for a second printer? Then the Drill to Filament Reel Adapter is exactly what you need! Not sold in any store, this adapter fits directly on the end of your power drill (supports multiple sizes) and then inserts directly into your spool (also supporting multiple sizes). I designed this after watching Angus' YouTube video use a piece of foam in one of his recent videos. I also wanted to share some filament with a friend and this works perfectly. I printed this in TPU, and I highly recommend you do the same. The TPU grips better than traditional PLA will. Here's the link to the filament I used. Since this is round, if you don't have extrusion issues, you can print it safely at 60-80mm/s. I personally printed it at 80mm/s on my Ender 3 with perfect results. You can also watch Angus' YouTube video on this project. If you need more help building this or want to discuss it, I'm here for you! You can find me in my public Discord chat server, and I'll be happy to answer any questions you have. Got suggestions? If you've got an idea for something new and exciting to build, send me a message. I'd love to hear from you!
