Goodbye to the limitations of the original 70 mm spool holder for the Prusa CORE One. I've designed this spool holder to accommodate spools from 95 mm to 143 mm in width, giving you the flexibility to use a wider range of filaments / spools.

Key features:

  • Expandable design: Easily adjust from 95 mm to 143 mm
  • Integrated expansion stopper of the sliding part (to prevent that it slips out)
  • Robust construction for stability
  • Quick and simple assembly
  • Designed for easy printing without support
  • Recommended filament and print settings: PETG (or PLA) with 25% infill; draft setting with 0.28 mm layer height works already very well)

Installation:

  • Insert the slider into the base and push it a little bit (to loose some filament strings you may need to turn it a few times clock- and counterclockwise)
  • Lock the slider into the base with a 90-degree turn. Now you can pull it outward for expansion without risk that it slips out
  • Replace the original holder using the same screws

Hope you like . I'd be happy to get your thoughts and improvement ideas.
