Topic: Yet Another Spool Holder

This forum has been the solidoodle 2 missing manual for me and many others. So, I decided to contribute my take on the filament spool holder. I have been pretty happy with it. It is simple and effective. The supports hold the PVC tube on which the filament spool rotates. The supports clip on to the top of the (caseless) solidoodle. The base of the support is designed to fit above the back but will will work on any side.

I have included two stl files. The spoolmount2.stl was design for the small radius spools that can be purchased from solidoodle. The spoolmount3.stl was a redesign for the larger aftermarket spools and will work for both.

Update: I ran both designs through netfabb for repair. I never had any problems with the originals but they looked strange in the forum previewer.
