Universal Filament Holder / Feeder

thingiverse

Heavy Duty Filament Spool Holder and Feeder. I designed this holder to be used as a feeder for my 3D printer. The design is self centering and adapts to multiple spool sizes and diameters. You will need: (1) 10mm threaded rod approximately 200mm long (2) 10mm x 30mm high nuts (2) 10mm washers (2) 30mm (Outer Diameter) x 10mm (Inner Diameter) x 9mm (Wide) Bearings You will need to print 2 cones and 2 sides. They are universal so they can be in either location. Assembly is as simple as screwing the whole assembly together along the threaded rod with the filament spool in the middle. I recommend adding one 10mm standard nut to one side to lock the threaded rod in position to one of the legs. Then just unscrew the other side and replace the spool. Lastly, you may print additional cones and add additional bearings and washers with a longer threaded rod to create a multiple spool holder.
