About this 3D model

This is a horizontal filament spool roller derived from http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:31678. I added a adapter for filament-spools coming from Sainsmart with a spool-hole-diameter of 48mm. I prefer this horizontal position because the ABS from Sainsmart has a bad winding and the boundary is too short which is leading to cable spaghetti in vertical position. I like this roller very much because it is working very good and I can use the very cheap ABS filament without spaghetti :-) Thank you Jack_N!!! You need the following: 3x Screws M5 X 20 http://www.ebay.de/itm/400424509995 3x Nuts M5 http://www.ebay.de/itm/400393603883 3x Bearings 625 (5 X 16 X 5) http://www.ebay.de/itm/370745264859 1x Bearing 608 http://www.ebay.de/itm/370837656843 Assemble the 625 bearings to the bearing plate with the screws and nuts. Place the 608 bearing in the middle of the bearing plate.
