Description

K2 Spool Holder Behold, a K2 Spool Holder - a "Heavy Duty" tabletop 1KG and 2.5KG filament spool holder. A K2 Clip "Heavy Duty" Desktop Spool holder/feeder, designed to be connected with 1/2" EMT Conduit. It's scalable, so you can build this to be narrow or wide to hold multiple spools. This is not a simple print in place holder, you can already find dozens of those, I wanted to create something different, something very sturdy. I have also added a snap-on filament guide / bowden tube feeder, and end caps to accent and express your own flair. As an after thought, I did add the option for you to print your own "conduit" rods, I recommend you test print/fit a small section and scale the larger rod as needed. FYI, conduit is what the cool kids are using. 📷 Image redacted — claim this model to add your own media Get your Prusameters… Post your Makes!

K2SpoolHolder-Slippery_v1.0 - Optional sleeve your cardboard spools will rotate even more freely. Print in Spiral vase mode with a Brim using a shinny PLA or even a Silk. I printed using clear PLA. Optional 3D Printed Rods: K2SpoolHolder_Rod125mm.stl - 3DPrinted “conduit” Size it the length you wish (use a Brim). K2SpoolHolder_RodTopRing_v1.0.stl - Finishing touch to your top spindle K2SpoolHolder_RodTestFit.stl - Test the fit before printing. My Print Settings: 0.3mm Layer height (for added strength, .2mm works great too) 15% infill Conduit Length? I cut all 3 pieces of EMT conduit at 145mm length. You could go a smaller (like the 3D Printed Rod at 125mm) for a tighter fit, but it's nice to have the wiggle room.
