Qidi X-Plus Spool Roller Fence

thingiverse

This is a remix of the Qidi 3D X-Plus Spool Roller by mistertech. It replaces the two Spool_Roller_lock_170mm.stl files that hold the assembly together. It replaces them with a solid bridge across and four vertical pillars. It's designed to be used with the original Qidi X-Plus roller and it holds it all in place. I was initially using mistertech's spool weight, but it wasn't enough in some circumstances to keep the spool on the rollers where the spool ended up inside my printer or on the floor. This helps fence in the original spool rod without adding much resistance to the process. The Qidi spool bar doesn't rub up against the vertical fences during rotation. Unless you wan to slice this up and print in pieces and assemble, it's going to require supports. I've added a picture of how I printed it with Simplify3D's default supports enabled. Just be careful taking them off so you don't break off the tabs on the bottom.
