Description
This adapter was built to accommodate larger rolls of filament or where the spool is too large to fit inside the AMS. These types of filaments can damage the AMS and wear down the rubber seals that rotate the spool. It's recommended not to use these filaments, however, if you're one of those people who has old (or not so old) filaments from South American brands. Well, this is the adapter for you! The idea is simple: you mount two towers on both sides of the AMS and a 40 mm PVC sewer pipe cut to the same size as the AMS. Two caps are added to both sides and rings to keep the filament rolls in place. No support is required to print this design. The base is printed upright, so it has greater resistance to bending, and the tower is printed lying down for the same reason. Because it's cut diagonally, the pieces fit together perfectly.
