Large (3kg) Spool Holder for Lulzbot Taz

thingiverse

This larger spool holder is a significant upgrade to my original design, which was a huge hit several years ago. The new spool holder is designed to accommodate larger 3kg spools of filament, thanks to its increased height and width. To cater to users' individual needs, I've included Inventor 2019 files as well as STEP format files that can be easily modified to suit specific requirements. This design features a snug fit for a 3/4 inch PVC pipe, which serves as the spindle. The smooth surface of the pipe ensures minimal friction when rotating the spool. If you don't have access to this type of pipe, you can refer to my other spool holder file, where I've included instructions on how to print one from scratch (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1424791). To secure the tube in place, simply screw it into the tube holes and clamp it down if your purchased tube doesn't match the required 1 inch OD.
