Ender 3 Filament Spool Spindle Expander

cults3d

Please measure your spool first. This is not a universal spool holder. Not all spools are the same size. So please measure yours first, before printing* This is designed for an Ender 3. The spindle that holds the filament spool is really tiny. If you have a typical 1 kg spool, you may find it sometimes flops around and causes vibrations and can end up making errors in your print or at least make you think it does. This extends the diameter of your spindle so that it more effectively fits inside your filament spool, stopping that slop and occasional flop of the spool. Just print, and screw the two pieces together. That's it. I made this for my particular filament spool and took measurements directly from it. 64mm outside spool width with a hole diameter of 60mm. The spindle extender though is a bit smaller at 59mm. The spindle itself, is 32mm and I made the extender 34mm...so you can still have a bit of slop and not worry about it hanging.
