Swiveling Spool holder

thingiverse

EXPERIMENTAL! Work in progress... FDM Noob here. Please tell me if you have issues with the design. Thanks! So i designed this for my 400 mm³ CoreXY to fit in the top enclosure. It bolts to the corner of 3030 rails in every axis, replaces existing corner brackets or bolts into existing ones, thus adding some structural integrity. The idea was to be able to swing the whole thing out for filament change and have some sort of filament guidance without too much constraints. There is an arm to guide the filament, which is also free swiveling. The filament runs trough a cleaner, which is also without constraints. You might add the clamps to limit the travel in Z axis. I have added a carrier for spool-less filaments as well (tolerances might be subjected to change though) I hope you get the idea. Please let me know if you make this thing and run into trouble or have success. The spool shaft is a remix of some other popular designs here.
