Bolt the hooks as shown in the pictures. String a rubber band through the C shaped channels and it is ready. Turn all hooks upright for loading. The hooks will stay that way unless one of them flips the other way; they are just over an unstable equilibrium point. Once the spool is in place, flipping one of the hooks into position will make the others follow.</p> <p>The hanger snaps in the hub. You can now hang the spindle to the Ultimaker. Sorry for delaying the availability of the hanger.</p> <p>Improvement suggestions are welcome and appreciated.</p> <p>Enjoy!</p> <p>Inventor files (*.ipt) are now available.</p>
