First, this is a remix of a remix with parts from a third model thrown in. I found the original models on Thingiverse, but since that place is broken as all get out I'm posting my model here and linking back to the original work. If you are one of the people I remixed and borrowed from please reach out to me on here so I can give you credit.The original design came from paydayxray and can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4300026The remix I used was made by DodgeDeBoulet and can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4345554The roller parts I used came from HugoHuge and can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3020026The original two spool holders work great until you put a cardboard spool on them. Then they generate a squeak or a groan every time it advances. Or if you are printing TPU they add just a little drag. I was trying to figure out why I was getting some random weird things in my TPU prints, I finally narrowed it down to drag on the spool.Print all three files, add two 608 bearings, grab a cheap articulating wall mount from that jungle theme website, and Bob's your uncle you now have a VESA wall-mounted roller bearing overhead spool holder.I used a .6 nozzle and printed the mount at .20 resolution with 90% infill. Why 90% infill? Because this thing is holding 2 pounds of plastic directly above my printer, I don't want it to pull a Humpty Dumpty and cause me to have a very bad day. No rafts and no supports.The holder guide I printed at 15% infill with the necessary supports. You know the drill, do what works best for your printer.The roller varies from the original design in that it has a 7mm diameter 90% infill core running from end to end if you use my GCODE. I had a problem with the ends snapping off when I removed the support material or when I tried to press on a bearing. I didn't want to print the whole thing at 90% infill so I just added a 109mmx7mm cylinder in Prusaslier.
