Filament Spool Divider

thingiverse

This prototype I cobbled together this afternoon still needs work, so your feedback on ways to improve or refine it would be greatly appreciated. If there's sufficient interest, I'll upload a revised version with tighter tolerances later. If you have leftover filament from a roll that's seen its last days, or if you've purchased sample spools like the 1kg Quantum3D ones this was designed for, this tool will come in handy. Simply snap it to either side of an empty spool and wrap your leftover filament neatly for future use. So far, I've only tested this with 1.75mm filament, but maybe it'll spark some creative remixes that can be applied to other types of filament as well.
