I made this model, because recently I got a 3 kg spool of filament, and my printers spool holder would probably break, since it's really only made for 1 kg of filament. (Its also 100% 3d printed! no screw's or bearings needed, the only thing you may need is super glue or tape.)
Pieces 1 and 2 are the legs of the holder. (5% infill) (regular supports if needed)
Piece 3 connects pieces 1 and 2 together. (5% infill) (regular supports if needed)
Main piece holds the filament spool. (5% infill) (regular supports)
(IMPORTANT) - You only need 1 main piece, the only difference between them is their diameters, because some spools have bigger holes then others. So print the size needed for your spool.
Also if your printer is having a difficult time pulling in the filament then using the solution I have found could help, all you have to do is put a used/almost used filament role on the existing spool holder, doing this will give the extruder more leverage, which In return puts less stress on the extruder.

(Supplies)
I used super glue to hold it together (better).
(you can also use tape if you don't have super glue at the moment)
(IMPORTANT) - Don't glue the main piece to piece 1 and 2.
