Renkforce RF-1000 Top Filament holder

I had significant problems with the original Renkforce RF-1000 Filament feeding tube, as it required a lot of force to move through. Many people typically have a shelf or mount a stick to the wall for easy access and loading. Unfortunately, I couldn't attach anything to the wall at my workplace, so I thought: why not attach it to the printer? So this is what I came up with. It's made from 4 pieces (2 identical). 2 Pieces (the mounts) get screwed onto the Renkforce Printer and the other 2 pieces (holders) just get stuck into the mount. Now you just need a broomstick and you can load and store Filament above the printer without having to worry about it getting stuck in the feeding tube. The holders even feature a possibility to attach Zip lock ties on each side. Also, the holders can easily be removed for transport of the printer. UPDATE: If the Print bed of your printer is not large enough you have to print the short holder and extension file.
