About this 3D model

> Companion piece (added 7/10): [Moderately-easy enclosure for Soldoodle](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:115998). I really liked the spool holder by nlancaster, but (i) it was a bit tough to print nicely (it was my third print ever, though :); and (ii) the newer Solidoodle spools seem to have larger diameter. Modified snap-in spool holder, that: 1. Is fully parametric! You can change mounting point, arm length, angle, clip diameter and orientation, etc. 2. Is much simpler to print (but perhaps not as pretty) 3. Adds screw counter-sink 4. Includes full SCAD source (could use some cleanup) The outer bracket and tower could be one piece, except it's too large for the SD2 . ChangeLog: - 7/14: Added STLs I'm using with [companion enclosure](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:115998). - 6/15: Added insets for rivets, when choosing back positioning (measured and tested on my SD2, there is some extra slack, let me know in comments if positions are off). - 5/23: Fixed some non-manifoldness SCAD issues on towers (pls let me know if you find parameters that produce non-manifold STLs). - 5/22: Fully parametric version, for Thingiverse Customizer. Also included additional mounting options inspired by yakwool's remix (plan to test those soon, once I get around to building a case which could use extra clearance). - 5/20: Initial version (non-parametric).
