Spool Bushing and threaded axle for Freestanding Filament Spool Holder
Description
I don't like the slop in the spool holders with you print multiples spool can jerk instead of rolling this can cause issues on weak extruders and can make noise if you have a quiet printer its annoying. So My working solution was to add a larger axle (still allowing for some slack but not as much) so it cannot move as much vs rotating. With this extra axle and bushing arrangements can also help with rotations as they will rotate on each other if the spool drags. Simple to print with thickest part down I did not need or use any supports. I used 210c and overature pla as well as sunlu pla all work on a .4mm nozzle INFILL at 30+ percent on axle for threads to not break ! threads may be tight i used .8mm gap for the .4mm each side of threads as nozzle width is .4mm if they are sticky to turn work them in a little before using by hand. don't force it to work go slow if they have to much friction or use a compatible lubricant. bushings are to be printed 2x either set, bigger ones is closer to sunlu spools and similar. The smaller ones are closer to the cardboard ones overature uses now. I am new to this so any constructive comments would be helpful You do not need to connect the bushings they are ok to walk apart too they will not be able to let spool fall because of axle rings.
