My Customized Filament spool roller

Created with Customizer! Using the following options: To build your desired custom bicycle chain wheel tensioner, adjust the parameters listed below. axles - Change to a suitable axle diameter between 4-8 for proper engagement on most standard derailleur hangers (Default = 5) flange number ($fn) - This will directly influence the complexity and print quality of this design; setting higher or lower numbers will significantly change both appearance and printing time. Increasing these can provide smoother edges, though more details in prints are possible only with much better models for a greater effect. gap and offset clearance – Set your required level (0 is ideal but may vary according to how freely the chain should glide smoothly) at most settings around -3 through +4 flange thickness and edge buffer (1-4) – Add this layer (minimum) between each edge flange pair so that all sides are evenly separated in print. Choose your choice with ease. hub dimensions: Bearing: select washer_diameter of your desired wheel hub between 10-12 or even slightly more at need. bearing_width will now influence spacing when building around this assembly area on one axle (min, mid-max recommended here.) bearing_diameter influences print tolerance so consider your required wheel hub and design parameters (choose up to but don't overdo 20). distance - Select preferred number between axles 10 – for smaller, shorter wheel applications; also keep an even balance. Thickness will allow setting desired build of flanges. The thinner you can get with acceptable prints here would result in most space saving versions however note as a starting value around thickness at maximum (7), your desired overall performance isn’t necessary for a complete or near-complete wheel but if not doing customizations on an already installed assembly please consult local dealer instructions. Your chosen configuration will make all print variations so far work. Have fun adjusting!
