Spool holder for Ender 5 relocated extruder

thingiverse

I liked the relocated extruder, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3595328 , but wanted a better place to put the spool. I used the universal spool holder, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2070272 and created a mount that attaches to the right back column. The design isn't fancy, I used tinkercad, but it gets the job done. When you re-orient it with the long flat side on the bed, it should print without supports. That worked for me! With this spool holder, you don't need to drill the extruder and use another piece of bowden tube. You can see in the photo how I arranged it. The filament feeds nicely with no binding. I used 8mm threaded rod to attach the spool holder. When I have more time, I'll redesign this one for better strength and looks. Meanwhile, I designed a new spool holder that can handle the Sunlu and others with 75 mm holes. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4013896
