About this 3D model

I quickly cobbled this together in Tinkercad. For basic usage (one "average" spool) it requires four 14cm segments of 1/2 inch square wood dowel. Such segments are usually discarded when cut from the larger retail/store-bought pieces. **It's Universial:** The setup can be extended to accommodate multiple spools if a longer horizontal dowel is mounted between two assembled "stands". Alternatively, any size spool can be fitted so long as the wood dowels are cut to appropriate sizes. **It's Scalable:** As a bonus, the entire design is scalable to suit almost any size of square dowel/tubing. Currently the holes are set to exactly 13mm, scaling to 77% will give you joints suitable for 10mm dowel. Scaling to 147% will give you joints suitable for 3/4inch square tubing/dowel. **It's Simple:** Enough said. Edit: Changed "13cm" to "14cm" to accommodate an even wider range of spools. \#FilamentChallenge
