HobbyKing / eSun Filament Reel Adaptor

thingiverse

This is a set of spacers used to steady the filament reels available at HobbyKing. The Spacer1 is designed for eSun 0.5 Kg reels, which are 36mm wide with an inside diameter of 53mm. Spacer2 is intended for Hobbyking branded reels, which are 61mm wide and have an inside diameter of 58mm. The adaptor is made specifically for a Wanhao duplicator 4 with a spindle diameter of 30mm and length of 90mm. It might also work on Makerbot devices, but verify the dimensions before making any assumptions. Additionally, it's suitable for Tevo Little Monster models and probably other models as well. Instructions: Slide over the existing spool holder and secure the adaptor by tightening the nut until it pinches the part in place. This will allow you to switch spools without needing to loosen the nut.
