Monoprice Ultimate/Wanhao D6 Filament Spool Holder with Bearings

prusaprinters

This is yet another filament spool holder for the Wanhao D6 with bearings. This will hold standard 1KG spools and 3.5 KG spools that measure 12" x 4". The designs I tried didn't work with my cheap 608 bearings as putting pressure from only one side would lock them up. The spacer tube in the middle and the two small washers prevent this in the new design. The large tube only makes contact on the outside of the bearings so all can move smoothly. Used a 12 cm M8 screw (or 5/16, 4.5 inch), washer and nut I had around to hold this together. Use the original holder nut that came with the printer to attach. Finally made this as I realized that all the spools I run through this where cutting into my fixed holder and particularly Ninjaflex was getting stretched quite a bit by the extruder.
