here you go. mounts on top of Solidoole and the rod holding the spools snaps into the holder. And depending on printer/spools can hold 2-3 spools.

Did anyone else have this problem with the SD2 Pro spool holder? It's very hard to get it to stay in one place, let alone keep the spool rotating. I feel like mounting it above the printer would be a better idea.

Anyone got some good suggestions for ways to suspend the spool above the printer?

Aside from going to home depot and grabbing a bunch of pvc to build a small tower to hold it I can't think of anything else
