FT-5 Spool Rollers

thingiverse

This is spool holder 608 bearing mount that can be used on the FT-5 when using https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2414257 as a top frame on the printer. It requires 4 608 bearings and nuts and bolts to mount the bearings. One of the nicest things about it is that you don't have to worry about filament coming off the side of the spool when you are using a new spool. I have also included the STL that I used to print the 20x20 hollow tube that I used instead of 2020 extrusion for the frame. All you need to do when printing is adjust the Z height of the part to match the length of tube that you need. I use Simplify3D so it's easy to do in the slicer but I'm sure it is also possible using another slicer. Print it with the closed in down for good bed adhesion. I printed it out with a .8 nozzle so it didn't take me that long to make the parts.
