Description
I have my my X1C in closet (Ikea METOD), which is 60cm wide, but I can't insert conveniently an external spool, even sidemounted, due to the dimensional restrictions of the closet. I already had my AIO Spool Holder Remix installed, but I was too optimistic regarding the insert for the spool and the handling. And I like the simple roller designed by Shortfin3D, too.
Well, so I designed an adapter for the lefthanded-thread of codebender's spoolholder body, to insert the accompanying spindle with the stock spool cage.
Now I have a stable AND detachable spindle on a low-profile mount and can change easily external spools Voila!
The mounting holes are designed for the Ikea METOD cabinet and I used the 6mmx13mm screws, which come normally with the hinges. But you can use other suitable screws, of course, or adapt the mount in the attached STEP file.
