Filament Spool Stand
With the advent of a new printer, which I assembled last summer, the question arose about the location of the coil. The standard place of the coil is behind the printer, but this gave me of inconveniences with access. And since my printer is under the shelf, I decided to feed through the shelf itself.

The main details of the stand are cut out of plexiglass by a laser, which I advise you if you want to repeat. Therefore, the archive also has drawing in DXF format. But you can print, for example, from PLA, you also need to take into mind that a load of 1 kg requires filling that is not the most loose.
I also added a filter to the hole in the shelf, inside of which there is a microporous foam rubber cut by a laser. This arrangement also made it possible to organize a kind of passive thermal chamber, hanging on magnets with a curtain made of agricultural fabric.
The design of the stand included such a detail as a felt clutch to slow down the coil itself. This detail prevents spontaneous unwinding of the filament.
I previously published the coil holders, but in this version I changed them a little, making them a bit thicker, and also put a different knob nut. M8 thin nut is used.
