Parametric Spool Hub

Parametric Spool Hub

This is my first thing! I designed a very simple (slightly) parametrized thing in OpenSCAD to improve my filament handling on my Prusa i3. This thing is simply a spoked hub to allow a filament spool to be run on a simple hoizontal rod supported above the printer frame, The STL is configured for a 6mm pivot rod (ideally smooth!) and a spool with a 52mm hole (like supplied by 3DFilaPrint) for 100m reels of PLA. Instructions Just open up in OpenSCAD, change the required parameters, hit F6 to compile it, export the STL as usual.
