Ender 2 Pro Spool Holder

thingiverse

Once installed, my printer went nowhere, so I no longer needed the handle attachment. Creality made a big fuss about its small footprint. So I decided to shrink that even more. This is an edit of my design I uploaded on www.printables.com. I reinforced the back by increasing its thickness and adding a support bracer in the middle. The reason is I discovered that a full 1kg spool of filament would cause the holder to bend a bit. It will still take a 80mm spool without issue. A trick I learned from another channel is to wrap PTFE tape around the bar for smooth rolling action. I might modify it later to use ball bearings for added smooth function.
