Filament Spooler Holder MK2

thingiverse

I own a Creality CR-10 and the built-in spool holder has a diameter too large for the discount spools I've found online. I designed and printed a previous spool holder, available on Thingiverse.com, but its tool compartment is insufficient to hold my maintenance tool and inaccessible when the spool is in place. I returned to the drawing board and created this new Filament Spool Holder MK2. I optimized the print files for smaller beds, aiming for 200 mm x 200 mm. The holder features three drawers: two large ones measure 200 mm x 140 mm x 20 mm, while the smallest is 100 mm x 140 mm x 20 mm. I retained a 20-mm diameter spindle but improved printing success by splitting it with a connecting rod in the middle. Additionally, I included successful construction pins and holes for easy assembly and a tapered base to prevent tipping. A separate file provides an optional top cover to accommodate filament feeding at a 90-degree angle from drawer opening.
