Description

I really liked the original Bestagon design, however since I'm purchasing only the refills from Bambu I'm printing quite a lot of these and hence wanted to make modifications to lower the filament consumption to print the spool to a minimum without compromising quality - currently at 129g per spool.

 

This means I have added:

  • Cuts into the Hex mesh with supported frame to remove material, but reinforce the edge
  • Cuts into the tube holding the roll. I was surprised to see there is no difference in sturdiness compared to solid tube, plus the refills comes with a cardboard tube as well.
  • added built-in filament clip. This design is great, since the clips that goes over the edge tended to tear a hole into the vacuum bags I use to store the spools. I was printing it separately anyway, so having it embed saves the tiny amount of extra filament.

I have decided to make all the modifications negative / positive parts for you to customize (for instance, you don't need the filament clip, or want to have 4 in 90° instead of two. Or you do not want “drill” holes into the connecting tube).

 

Tested in PLA and PETG (my filament of choice). If you're looking into drying your filament, I suggest going with ASA, or ABS.

 

AMS and AMS lite compatible.
