Wanhao Duplicator i3 Flat Spool Holder

thingiverse

I wanted to create a design that allows me to lay my spool of filament flat on my printer, making it possible to fit in an enclosure with a low roof. This solution utilizes the existing holes and original screws, so no additional materials are required. The design consists of two parts: the filament holder, which accommodates 30.48mm (1.2in) spools, and the adapter, which measures 53.34mm (2.1in) to support larger spools like Hatchbot's. On 9/18/2016, I added a 36.83mm (1.45in) adapter for rolls with a diameter of 1.5in. On 11/30/2016, I created a version featuring a guide for the filament based on the original design. Although I haven't tested this variation yet, it's available as an alternative to the original one. To further enhance functionality, I've added a slot and a version without a slot, as well as a 50mm adapter option.
