<h1><b>AnkerMaker M5 <i>Dual</i>-foldable Filament Holder</b></h1> <p><i>Use Case</i>: I am currently waiting for the AnkerMake V6 Color Engine to be delivered, but needed a dual filament holder for my printer for the time being.The bracket slides over the existing AnkerMake M5 spool holder arm, using the same screw hold, with two spool holders, which can fold upward 90° to be out of the way.</p> <li><p>I also have the Fusion360 File available for anyone that wants to make substantial changes, just send me a message or comment.</p></li> <li><p>The AnkerMake Slicer outputs <i><b>.acode</i></b> rather than .gcode. For those who use gcode, I have also uploaded a version sliced in Snapmaker's Luban. The orientation of the prints in the .acode or .gcode produce the best print results in my experience/testing</p> <li><p>I have <b>not yet</b> printed a significant volume of parts using the new dual filament holder so it is still a work in progress. I am still trying to determine how to write the filament run-out command into the .acode so that I can swap filaments mid-print</p> <h1>Hardware</h1> <ul> <li><p><p>M4 Nyloc Nut (2x) <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08R9NVMMY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1"> Hex Lock Nuts Nylon Insert Nut</a>.</p></p> <li><p><p>M4 x 35mm Screw (2x) <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08H57GY9L/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1">Button Head Socket Cap Screw Assortment</a>.</p></p></li> <li><p><p>M4 x 20mm Screw (1x) <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08H57GY9L/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1">Button Head Socket Cap Screw Assortment</a>.</p></p></li> <li><p><p>M4 x 5mm Threaded Insert <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07LBQGKV1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1">Female Thread Brass Threaded Insert</a>.</p></p></li> </ul> <h1>Filaments</h1> <li><p><p> OVERTURE<a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0865HGFXV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1"> PLA Plus (PLA+) - Black</a>.</p> <h1>Printers</h1> <li><p><p>AnkerMake<a href="https://www.ankermake.com/m5?ref=naviMenu"> M5 3D Printer</a>.</p></li>
