Just print the two STL files in duplicate and assemble the whole thing. The axis is 5 cm in diameter, please check the inside diameter of the reels, normally 5.5 cm. The central pieces are 3 cm long and the other 1 cm long. For assembly, leave one side with the nuts plus washers classic. On the other side, disassemble the two nuts and washers, then thread in order, an edge piece (short diameter on the coil side) and the two normal ones. Insert the coil then put the second edge piece (short diameter on the coil side). Close with the nuts and fix it to the desired support. Mounted on an A6 in the photos. The parts are separated to reduce printing time and can be made in several times if necessary. Ensures a smooth print, tested over 8 hours continuously and no problems with jumping or running.
