Filament Spool and Smart Controller holder for Prusa i3

thingiverse

Designed with a robust build, my spool and smart controller holder was printed using ABS 1.75 filament. I combined this print with a smooth glass surface covered in Kapton tape and topped it off with an extra layer of ABS juice for enhanced durability. The entire system was carefully designed to fit snugly on the FolgerTech Prusa i3 kit's framework, made from 6 millimeter thick acrylic material. Components needed to assemble this ingenious spool holder include two precise 608zz bearings, one sturdy 10-inch long threaded rod with a diameter of five-sixteenths, eight secure nuts and matching washers in the same size, two standard universal spool holders featuring the aforementioned 608zz bearings (one may be found at thingiverse.com), two matching left and right side spool holders specifically designed to fit within the 6 millimeter frame, four precise M3-sized screws with lengths of 12 millimeters (2.8 millimeter diameter) each. Completing this clever system is one highly reliable Smart controller unit available through the official RepRapDiscount page at reprap.org
