I needed a solution for mounting 2kg spools in the Mk4 enclosure. I did not want to deal with a secondary extension to the original enclosure spool holder for fear of losing the extension or an extra-long enclosure spool holder that would take up a lot of space when not using a 2kg spool. A coworker mentioned retrofitting the Prusa XL spool holder to the Mk4 enclosure and this is the result.
Printing instructions:
- I printed the adapter on the Prusa Mk4 with the hexagonal hole on the bed.
- 0.4mm Nozzle
- 0.2mm Layer height
- 3 Perimeter walls
- 20% Grid infill
- I used Prusament PETG. You can probably get away with using PLA but I would not recommend it.
- The part is designed to not use supports when printed with the hexagonal hole on the bed.
- Depending on your bed adhesion situation you may want a brim.
