Wall Mount Spool Rack

thingiverse

After reviewing a number of spool holders, I ended up designing my own. For now, wall mounting is the easiest and I ended up on this design: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:119920. I found it to be overkill structurally even after trimming away most of the volume. I also found this one: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:513457 but I wanted individual bars for the spools for easier swapping. I came up with this design to make it easy to add more spools since there are not distinct left and right ends. I made two different brackets; one angles up and one down. This allowed me to mount two rows on a board that I can move to another wall when I need to. Instructions I designed the parts in OpenSCAD and I will upload the source once I get the code cleaned up. The bar length should fit most spools, though I have one that is just a bit too wide.
