Horizontal Spool Holder

thingiverse

This is a Lazy-Susan style Spool Holder designed to fit my Fabrikator Mini, which lacked a built-in spool holder.\nIt relies on 28 3/8" ball bearings (used in slingshots) to function properly.\nThe base, top, and central hub are secured together with a single 1/4"-20 screw.\nA nylock nut has been applied to prevent the assembly from loosening when turned.\nTo ensure smooth operation, print both the base and top with the bearing groove facing upwards.\nI have included two adapter options for different spool sizes, which simply slide onto the central hub.\nThe 55 mm adapter is designed for ESUN spools, while the 51 mm adapter fits Matterhackers and Ultimaker spools.\nPlease note that I have not tested any other spool sizes, but you can create your own adapters if needed.
