filament spoolholder with a brake

prusaprinters

This spoolholder is made to be a spoolholder with a low profile because it needed to fit underneath my desk. The total height with spool is approximately 210mm. All holders I found were too simple for me or had a higher profile. I added the bearings for aesthetic reasons and to keep everything running smoothly. The bearings I used were SKF 6300-2Z with ID of 10mm, OD of 35mm and width of 11mm. Because everything runs so smoothly there was an additional problem that when the extruder comes up the filament "unwinds from the spool". In addition I therefore made a brake that you can click on the "frame" and you can determine the resistance on the spool yourself. Print instructionsMake sure you use the layer height of 0.10mm otherwise the threads on the drum won't work.
