There are loads of designs out there for the mk3- they were my inspiration for this. I use one similar to this on my mk3: https://www.printables.com/model/208968-prusa-mk3-spool-holder-smooth-bearing-roller-editi

I like this design, but what's going to keep the spool from falling off the end?

RE:

The roller is slightly smaller than the bearings; this wasn't the case in my first design!

It now provides good positive retention.

I might try that I knowbits a big Chace but could you change the connecting end to fit in the slots of a replicator 2 if you download the replicator 2 spool holder then add that end to this one it would be amazing and I would much appreciate it

Thanks so much

I'm also finalizing a design with bearings.  in my case I needed one that would also work with the 3d upfitters enclosure on it.   I have one on the right side now I'm printing one for the left to verify design.  Then I'll probably post.

Here's what the right side looks like.  I may make some adjustments to the spindle to be slightly longer but this is the idea.

RE: Spool holder with bearings- new design- feedback appreciated

Left side.  I have a new spindle that's longer that I'm printing.

Not to shanghai the topic but the above is available on printables

https://www.printables.com/model/673222-prusa-xl-spool-holder-with-bearings-that-fits-with

this is meant to work with 3D upfitters enclosure.  I should have a full set printed by morning

There’s a pretty good one for mk3/4 I’ve been using that inspired my design.  Look for filler on printables
