Description
Update 5MAR2021: Added 30mm diameter spool holder. Print 30MM Core 1, 30MMCore 2, and 2 30mm DIA ends. Verified with zyltech 5kg spools.
Here's a spool holder I designed for 10kg filament spools from push plastics. This spool holder allows you to feed your 3d printer DIRECTLY off of the 10kg spool! I bought the spool here: https://www.pushplastic.com/collections/3-kg-bulk-reel/products/pla-10kg-22-pounds
