Sidewinder X2 Spoolmount (clean, centralized, stable, pressfit)
Description
No matter which Artillery Sidewinder X2 review I saw - all, myself included are unhappy with the original Artillery Filament spool holder. It is wobbly, tends to fall apart, and the filament sensor holder is awkwardly positioned. Thats why I designed my own one which can be simply plugged on. **Features** - Centered everything (Spool centered Front/Back/Left/Right, Filament-Sensor feedthrough centered to the middle of the spool, Feedthough is also nearly on a line with the extruder in Y-Axies) - Reusing the original Rollers, Bearings, Screws - Reusing the original Filament Sensor and its holder - Clampmount for the Sidewinder X2 plastic connection bar - Pressfit. No additional Glue or Screws needed - Easy to print and assemble **Assemble** *See pictures* 1. Be sure your printer does not over extrude filament. For the pressfit there is a tolerance of just 0.1mm 1. Put one of the sides on a flat table, press it carfully to the bottom part (use the correct side!). Use a hammer and something in between and push it very carfully together until both parts are flush. Only push and hammer vertically that you don't break the part while assembling. 1. *Optional, you mount the roller bearings and rollers before pressfit both sides completely. Then you save the careful bending open of the two sides* 1. Repeat the same procedure with the other side. 1. If not done already, install the bearings and carefully bend the two sides apart while inserting the rollers. 1. Install the filament sensor. Just reuse the original Screw and holder 1. Plug it onto your printer Enjoy, post some your make and feel free to leave comments. Like it? [](https://ko-fi.com/F2F7GC8PC)
