Description
This spool makes it easier to share a small sample of filament.
It can be glued together, but I recommend using six M2x6mm screws (or both).
This spool is about 64g when empty -- including the 6 screws -- when printed in PLA.
The pictures compare this spool to a regular 1Kg spool. I added some text to the design after I printed the one pictured.
TIP: Spool directly from the source spool. Don't unwind a length from the main spool and then attempt to spool it on the smaller spool. Any interesting length of unspooled filament tends to coil and get tangled.
If you want to remix this design, send me a comment and I'll share the Fusion 360 project with you.
