Filament Bearing Sleeve - Standalone -or- Companion to YAFSH

cults3d

I created this as a companion to my YAFSH but it can also function independently as your own filament holder. It was designed specifically for MakerGeeks reels, but it works perfectly with any spool that is 67mm thick and has a 57mm inner diameter opening. There are two versions available. The original version uses the bearingSleeve-center model and two of the bearingSleeve-endcap_x2 models. You can adjust the outer diameter of the center piece to fit your specific reel if necessary. The second version uses only two of the bearingSleeve-standalone_x2 models. You will need to resize the inner circle if your reel is a different size. In my opinion, the draw of the first version is that it provides inner support for the reel as well as a central object against which you can snug the nut without deforming the reel. It's also simpler to resize the first version for various reels than the second version. The choice of which to use is ultimately yours. In addition to the printed pieces, you will need the following hardware: 12mm-1.75 x 140mm bolt 12mm-1.75 nut 12mm x 26mm washer x2 Toro 110513 (Stens 215-211) bearing x2 I chose these components because they were readily available in my shop this weekend as a mechanic. The bearings have an inside diameter of 0.75", an outside diameter of 1.38", and a height of 0.495". This particular bearing also has two unique features that make it the perfect fit for this project - there is a small lip on one side (1mm) and a small lip on the outer edge (2mm). Standard bearings without these lips will not work with this design!
