Holder for TUSH (the universal spool holder), designed for an Ikea Platsa cabinet to prevent TUSH from moving around in the cabinet. <a href='https://ko-fi.com/T6T4DXTSD' target='_blank'><img height='36' style='border:0px;height:36px;' src='https://cdn.ko-fi.com/cdn/kofi4.png?v=3' border='0' alt='Buy Me a Coffee at ko-fi.com' /></a> ## Why The holder with the spool got dragged closer to the printer during the print. Instead of buying better rubber feet for the holder to put underneath, I made this holder to prevent TUSH from sliding around in the cabinet. ## Design Details Simple holder in that holds TUSH in place. The rim is 3mm wide, that means TUSH can't be fully folded together. Has a long groove for the screw to go into and to be moved up and down if needed. Made for the left side of the cabinet but can be mirrored in the slicer for the right side. Maybe it fits other cabinets or enclosurs like Besta or Pax as well. When in use, the spool now just tilts a bit to the side and falls back when a few centimeters are reeled off. But only when spool is almost empty. To make this work, I had to make the hinging screws on TUSH a bit tighter. I also made another version with the mounting screw offset by 40mm to mount the TUSH holder in the back of Platsa. This was needed because I have a few spools that are a little bit wider than the gap on the left of 'Ender would allow. ## Print Instructions Print upright like shown in picture. Use supports. Designed for FDM printing. ### Materials Needed <ul> <li>1x M4x8 button head screw </ul> The <i>button</i> head is needed to make sure that TUSH fits good into the holder. A cylinder head would push TUSH out of the holder. ## Assembly Instructions <ol> <li>Print out. <li>Fix TUSH holder in cabinet with <i>M4 button-head screw</i> <li>Insert TUSH from above into TUSH holder </ol> <a href='https://ko-fi.com/T6T4DXTSD' target='_blank'><img height='36' style='border:0px;height:36px;' src='https://cdn.ko-fi.com/cdn/kofi4.png?v=3' border='0' alt='Buy Me a Coffee at ko-fi.com' /></a> (All product links are MakerBot affiliate links.
