We don’t normally share projects like this because, gasp, it’s not really a hack, but this completely 3D printed filament spool holder by [Creative Tools] is actually quite amazing.

Why 8mm? I ended up with 8mm as a ‘standard’ spool holder centre by an unintentional route. It is the internal diameter of the (amazingly cheap) 608 skateboard bearings which hobbyists and makers have ...

Most 3D printers come with a pretty basic filament holder — often little more than a bar to hang the spool on. [Ivan Miranda]’s 3D printers run bigger spools than most, though, so he had to ...

For those using generic 3D printer filament, the issue of spool management is sometimes troublesome. Now those issues could be solved with the MonsterFeed universal spool holder. An annoying problem ...

3D-Filament-Holder-Arduino The code I generated for this project enables an arduino to be attached to my custom made spool holder, measuring/recording mass of filament left in the spool with a load ...

The new octagonal SlantSpool [Source: Slant3D] Slant3D has re-invented the ubiquitous 3D printer filament spool, but for some reason it’s not round. Spools come in all kinds of sizes, shapes and ...
