Filament roll holder

prusaprinters

<p>Small, yet effective filament roll holder that you can mount to a wall, roof or under a desk to store your filament roll. I recently built the Mk3 Lack Enclosure v2 (the one for the MMU), but I do not have an MMUnit. I wanted to have the rolls inside the enclosure so I didn't have to put more holes in the enclosure than needed, and found room between the printer and the upper table part.<br>The part has a rounded space for the filament roll to drop down into.&nbsp;<br><br>You only need to print two, but I would suggest printing a third for better support for the weight, stability and movement axis.&nbsp;<br>If you print this on it's “back” (like shown in the picture from the slicer), you don't need any supports other than for the screw holes.<br>The screw holes are designed to fit the 5×20 mm pan head screw that you need to build the enclosure.</p><p>This is great use for that final 4-5 meters of filament you have left on your spool.<br>Also, I did YOLO the placement of the holders, that's why there's extra screwholes in the pictures xD<br><br><strong>/!\ WARNING! /!\&nbsp;</strong></p><p>If you are going to print from these like I do in my cabinet, you need guides for the filament. Either a bowden tube or a printable guide. I use two <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/115109-filament-guide">Filament Guide by Matt Boyer</a> (one for each roll)<br>If you do not have a guide, and you're using prusament, the filament will snag on the 2 cutouts in the filament roll, and the pull force will either rip the filament spool lose or actually <i>lift</i> the printer.&nbsp;</p><p>You should also use something more heat resistant than PLA, like PET-G or ABS/ASA. I used ASA as I had that laying around.</p>
