Best support for multi filament ?

Hello,

Trying to find the answer since 1 hour, without success so calling for help.

What is the best support for filaments you are using for MM2S multi filament prints ?

I have seen different solutions, but I would like to get the feedback of experienced users.

Thanks in advance !

I have used PLA as support for PETG. never had much luck with PVA

you need plenty of  Purging volume between the filament changes!

By support I was meaning the piece on which the filament stands and turn. I don't know if there is another special word for it. I would like to have 5 filaments loaded upper the printer. Where can I find an STL & explanations on how to build this ?

on the MMU2S, I have my filaments on a shelf over the printer


I use this sort of spool holder on the shelf,

I am using the LACK enclosure V2 with the original MMU2 buffer installed on top and mounted spool holders for PLA and dry boxes connected to the buffer for PETG, PVA+ and ASA. I am quite happy with this setup...

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
Find out why this is pinned in the general section!

Looking nice too, but don't have the space to put an enclosure here unfortunately.
