I printed Dintid's spool holder found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1000323. Finished the end of the spool rod with a knob borrowed from Galaxius' project here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:754248. The STL files for those projects are included here. I decided I didn't like the spool sticking out in front of the left leg, as per Dintid's original setup, mainly because I had to leave a gap to allow clearance for the hotend and 5015 fan mounted on top of it. With that setup, the spool ended up about two to three inches away from the leg, which meant the filament would have to make an almost ninety-degree turn to feed the extruder motor mounted on top of the frame. So I chose to mount the spool on top of the frame and also wanted to reinforce the corner, so I designed this to fill both roles. The hole and cutout in the uprights are 8mm, I'm using a 5/16" rod and it was a tight fit, needed to bore it out with a slightly larger drill bit to allow the rod to slip in and out freely. I sloped the upper edge of the hole inside the upright and the lower edge on the outside to make it easier to insert the rod end at an angle without having to flex the arms to make room.
