Filament spool holder

thingiverse

To easily remove the cumbersome Z-AXIS support structure from my Prusa I3 MK3S, I created a straightforward spool holder design. Since the holder couldn't be printed in one single piece, I had to incorporate a dovetail joint into the spool holder's design. I recommend using 28.5MM aluminum tubing for secure storage of filament spools. The design includes endcaps that prevent the tube from sliding out of the holders. You can place the holders as far apart as needed to accommodate any number of filament spools you require. This is a very basic yet effective filament spool holder that gets the job done when it comes to offloading the Z-axis printer structural support system.
