Like the price and color choice, but hate the cardboard spool design. Both want to un-spool with the slightest movement due to so much filament put on the spool. I’m sure it won’t be too bad once I use up some of the filament.

Currently using the stock PVC spool holder on an SD2, What would you do to keep these from un-spooling? Also running filament in through the back. Tried running through hole in my party tray, but it didn’t seem to make a difference.

Is it ok to put some tension on the spool? Or would that mess with your print layers?
