Small Wall mounted spool holder

thingiverse

This smaller wall mounted spool holder is a scaled-down version of my earlier design. My company asked me to give nylon filament from Taulman a try, and some of the spools they use have a 3/4 inch hole, which means my old holder won't fit. It looks fragile at first glance, but it's surprisingly sturdy. I wouldn't dare throw it or hit it with anything, yet it manages to hold even a heavy roll in place just fine. This black ABS model was printed solid (100% infill using Cura) and looks sleek. The version shown in the picture has some minor differences from the print file I uploaded online. The newer design features filleted edges where the shaft meets the plate, making it slightly stronger in that area. I'm currently working on printing a nylon version of this spool holder. Wish me good luck!
