Ord Bot Spool Holder

thingiverse

Here is a space saving spool holder to clean up your desk / work bench. Can be mounted on the ends of any Maker slide but it was designed for the Ord Bot. Instructions I printed it with PLA at .25 layer height, 50% fill and support (seems sturdy but a little more fill might make you more comfortable). Hardware: 13-14 inches of 1/4 inch threaded rod. 4 x M5 16mm screws 1/4 inch nuts and washers 608ZZ bearings (optional) Plastic Washers (optional) 1) Print two spool holders (and optionally the washers) 2) Tap the ends of the Makerslide with an M5 tap 3) Mount the Spool holders with 4 x M5 screws 4) Assemble the rod with the desired bearings (held with washers/nuts) at regular intervals (or without bearings with just washer/nuts at each end of rod) I've included large plastic washers that can be used as seperators. With 6 608zz bearings and 6 plastic washers, you can set up 3 spools perfectly spaced with this set-up.
