Orion Spool Holder

prusaprinters

<p>Increased the size of the cone slightly so it'd work better with SeeMeCNC spools, and designed a bracket that mounts tight to a SeeMeCNC Orion's existing side panel.</p> <p>After a carriage upgrade on my machine, I had some spare 608zz's laying around, so make sure you have those available for the cones.</p> <p>Metric components being hard to come by in my neck of the woods, and not wanting to order anything online, this is the list of parts I ended up with for the spool holder;<br/> One 5/16 x 6 carriage bolt (I would actually suggest a 6.5 in retrospect.)<br/> Six 5/16 flat washers<br/> Four 5/16-18 hex nuts<br/> One 5/16-18 wing nut</p> <p>Order of assembly should be bolt / washer / mount / washer / nut / washer / cone / washer / nut / nut / washer / cone / washer / nut / wingnut. The nut/nut combination should be tightened loose to the cone, and tightened hard into eachother to stop the cone from unthreading them as the filament unloads counter-clockwise. Same theory with the nut/wingnut combination. Or you could just find reverse-threaded components...</p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>SeeMeCNC</p> <p><p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>ORION Delta 3D Printer</p></div><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p><p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>Yes</p></div><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2</p> <p><p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>30%, MatterControl "Line"</p></div></p> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>Make sure to set your slicer to print support everywhere for the bracket.</p> </p></p></p> Category: 3D Printer Parts
