Description
Here is my Masterspool inspired by Fiberlogy's new 2023 spool design. These were first shown at Formnext in November and look really cool. Apparently the new spools will be reusable for their refill packs but as its early days, no one has them yet to find out what kind of system they use.
So, here's one that you can get your hands on now and only requires a few M3 bolts, the type that you find all over your MK3 so you might have a bunch in your spares already.
Its a 3 part print, I chose this so that the outer sides are printed upwards to enable that cool design to have a good amount of detail. No overhanging surfaces on the inner tube.
It has been modelled to fit Fiberlogy's refill spools (850g). 1k spools will most likely NOT fit.
Anyway, why would you want to fit anyone else's refill spools to this?! Fiberlogy are great.
Bolts: 10x M3 x 8-10mm (no longer than 10mm)
Print all parts, screw one side to the centre and place the fitting guide if needed on top. Fit the refill spool on, cut the zipties on the spool while keeping your hand on the spool to stop it uncoiling or moving. Carefully place the second side down and screw in place.
Tip - Would recommend a white outer colour as its the Fiberlogy theme, but put a colour change in where the closed holes are visible, but don't that confuse you later if you colour it to a different colour you will later have on the spool! Anyway, have fun.
Happy printing!
