SLy Spool Winder

thingiverse

My design of the classic spool winder. - Easy to screw open and close without tool - Fits spools of any size - Easy to print without support - Parametric using OnShape Included STLs and STEP have the following properties: - Good for spools with: - Hole diameter: 48mm → 80mm - Spool width: 20mm → 78mm - To be mounted on a 100mm M8 bolt with one nut I use a tight fit for my designs. Therefore, the "Horizontal Expansion" / "X-Y ... compensation" in your slicer should be properly calibrated. If your print settings are not calibrated, just use 0.1mm or more if your printer is bad. Note: The printed thread has an added play of 0.2mm As an example, I printed mine in ABS with "X-Y hole compensation" : 0.05mm and "X-Y contour compensation" : 0mm. If you wish, customize it by just typing new values for: - Bolt diameter - Bolt head Size - Spool minimum allowed width - Spool maximum allowed width - Thread Play - ...
