Monoprice Select Mini Spool Holder
Description
The ZiggTech spool holder allows you to mount most types of 3D filament spools while minimizing binding, unlike the oem spool holder. The spool holder also significantly improves how well the Monoprice Mini can print flexible filaments. Bowden tube extruders are at a disadvantage to direct gear extruders for printing flexible filaments because the filament drive is so far from the extruder. Flexible filament acts as a damper expanding and contracting as its pushed and pulled. This can cause build up in the nozzle and eventually jamming and failed prints. By aligning the spool with the drive, less tension is placed on the filament which leads to less deformation.
