TEVO Tarantula Pro Filament Holder

thingiverse

This filament spool holder is intended for the TEVO Tarantula Pro, but will also work on any other 3D printer with 20X20mm extrusion on its top, or a 20X40, or 60,or 80, etc. extrusion on its top, as long as the 20mm side is facing up. Works with v-slot or t-slot extrusions. This is suiting for everyone with a TEVO Tarantula Pro because, as everyone of you probably noticed, the kit doesn't come with a filament holder, and the one supplied on the SD card to print is kinda lackluster, in my opinion. Also this spool holder positions the spool out of the way of the x-axis regardless of the z height. This minimalistic spool holder requires no supports, and only takes around 6 hours to print. No special print settings needed. If you feel more comfortable using a brim, I say why not. After printing, remove the bridge tower thing that is at the mounting end using a knife (be careful), as the pictures depict. Then use a M5x15 bolt and a T-nut supplied in the extra parts bag of your Tarantula Pro kit to mount the spool holder to your printer as shown, or in any other position you feel called to mount it. If you are unsure whether your printer can accommodate this spool holder, a small test mount is included. I also recommend printing out this filament guide and installing it on your printer. That way the filament doesn't rub on the plastic parts of the titan extruder that comes with the Tarantula Pro, eventually cutting a notch out of it. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3008429 It's designed to work for the TEVO Tornado, but I found that it works fine with the Tarantula Pro.
