Spool Adapter Cap

thingiverse

This cap is designed to adapt Jantzenday's CR-10 Spool Adapter, thing:2387254, for use with the standalone acrylic spool holder that comes with the Anycubic i3 Mega and possibly other printers. The cap measures 30.8mm in outer diameter, fitting snugly within the 31 mm inner diameter of Jantzenday's spool adapter. The 16.5mm inner diameter hole accommodates the aluminum tube of the Anycubic spool holder, which is included with my printer. A hub-centered spool holder results in a smoother and quieter 3D printing experience. Since I'm using Jantzenday's spool adapter on my CR-10 clone, it only made sense to maintain consistency by creating this cap for my Anycubic. I crafted the outer lip of the cap to be small enough that the adapter nut can be threaded onto the adapter hub without removing the cap. If you're only using Jantzenday's spool adapter with your Anycubic printer, you'll need to install these caps just once. I hope this adaptation proves useful for someone.
