About this 3D model

I wanted something that was kind of low-tech to print and something I could take apart easily for storage, so I made this. I also wanted something that I could use to keep my second hand free as a filament guide to make sure things wind easily. Also doubles as 2 external spool holders. Huzzah! And it took me around 2 minutes to respool a thing lol. I ight have been slightly overzealous though XD EDIT (2/18/24): Included 2nd version with a different version of the ‘to side’ that should have less of the wobble issue the first one had (but I haven't personally tested it). From side, center bracer/spacer and screws are the same; Stand and center spool will need to get reprinted if you want to update it. Will accept spools up to 100mm thick for the filament being UNWOUND Will accept spools of varying width and inner hole sizes to put the filament ONTO (because I have lots of old spools that aren't Bambu Bois) Takes under 1kg of filament to print. (and about 15 hrs between the 3 plates) Requires no additional parts (unless you use a drill… in which case… you need a drill…) Includes a few options for pieces --Manual spinner handle vs drill attachments --Drill attachments have a bit where you can insert a bit (flat head or hex) and spin the spool that way, or one with a sticky-outy plastic hexegon you can attach the collette directly into --Version of the threaded things that tighten onto the spools with grooves for grip and one without --Optional piece you can print to low-key lock the plates together and keep the different spool holders farther apart.
