Description
When you struggle to change the filament on your Predator, maybe this is something for you.
The spoolholder and the slot are the same as in https://www.printables.com/model/239536-detachable-spoolholder. Here you can also find the guide for the extended feeding tube (stops where the old short one stopped). This can be mounted under the top corner plate.
The slot (?) for the spoolholder comes in 3 versions: with no tolerance, 0.25 or 0.5 mm tolerance for the spoolholder. The last one gave me a good result right of the buildplate.
The slot must be mounted with two 4mm screws or bolts. Size of the head is max 8mm. The slot is slightly adjustable during mounting. You have to drill 2 holes in one of the towers. screws up to 13mm will work (there is a second wall behind).
The spoolholder can hold rolls up to 80 mm.
Happy spoolholding :)
