Description
We all need to fix the filament end on spool from unwinding during storage. Here is another simple clip, which works with 1.75 filament on any spool. Based on popular design, which I first gladly printed. But somehow with those clips I struggle a bit every time to fit the filament into the slots. Finally I decided to redesign it, accepting the approx. size and shape and the idea of clipping the end with the previous turn and bend the end for hold. Basically, I have changed the slots' width and profile and made them symmetrical. Now the filament is much easier for me to fit into any of the wider slots and it holds there enough and can be pulled tighter together with the clip. Print instructions I print it with PET. I guess it could be printed with PLA, ABS or other. I use 0.15 for layer, 2 perimeters, 5% infill. Included 3 print files: 1 pcs; 1 pcs two colors (Hint: you can just stop printing on color change to get rid of the logo); x5 pcs sequentially. Also I included the Fusion 360 archive, so you can play with the model to create Your Very Personal filament clip.
