It is not uncommon for me to juggle multiple projects at the same time. While I am working on this controller upgrade I have the GEEETech i3 printing out more parts for the printed printer I am making. Unfortunately my spool holder has failed. This was a bad design on my part..



The legs were too thin and the one in the front broke off and the 2.2lb spool always made it bow. So I drew up something a little thicker in autodesk 123d design..



And with the filament spool on a tabletop spool holder sitting on a chair in front of the printer I printed the part out with the i3..



As always with this machine, I am very happy with the results..



It fits nicely on the frame and has no deflection with a fresh spool of filament sitting on it..
