Filament Spool with 8mm bearings

Filament Spool with 8mm bearings

Description

This is a part that I designed to replace the original spool holder on the Ender 3 V2. I used 8mm ball bearings <a href="http://fumacrom.com/3uUOH"> found here. </a> This part replaces the original spool holder, using the original retaining clip to hold it in place. The idea is that by reducing friction you can prevent some of the dumber complications that can occur with prints. This part allows the roll to spin freely. *note* Some companies have been using cardboard rolls, lately. This isn't spaced well enough for them, so I just prop up one side of the roll on the bearing and it still spins freely. I may redesign this with those in mind, if I get time. (EDIT) Added a cylinder that snugly holds the roll with channels for the bearings inside. Been using it for a few weeks now, and it honestly works great!
