Filament Roller

thingiverse

Remixed Holspeed's design so that the filament roll can sit alongside the printer in a much more compact fashion as shown in the pictures. Instructions: 1) Mount the stock filament holder on the rail as shown in the pictures, in order for it to fit with most reels only half of it will fit onto the rail and the other half will be hanging off; I found this to be secure enough. 2) Assemble the filament guide using 1x Bracket.stl, 2x spacer.stl and 1x ring.stl. The spacers should fit inside a standard skateboard bearing and the ring should fit around the outside. If the ring does not fit tightly enough try using ring-sm.stl. Use a screw to hold the wheel in place. 3) Mount the filament guide as shown in the pictures, this should stop filament snagging on anything as it enters the extruder. 4) Enjoy!
