FT-5 Spool Holder

thingiverse

I designed a superior stock spool holder for my FT-5, as the original one didn't meet my standards. It fits standard 2020 extrusions perfectly. To create this improved holder, you'll need a 1-1/8 inch diameter PVC pipe. A slightly smaller pipe will work if you use epoxy or hot glue to secure it in place. Note that you'll have to scale the parts ten times larger to get the correct size. The software I used to model these components exports STL files with dimensions set in centimeters instead of millimeters, but every slicer defaults to millimeters - figure that out for yourself.
