Parts
- 1x Husky box which can be found at Home Depot
- 2x Capricorn (or similar) bowden tube kit which I bought at MicroCenter
- 12x 608 ball bearings - steel or print your own
- 24x M3x0.5mm 3.85mm deep threaded heat inserts
- 24x M3x12mm socket-head cap screws
Printing
No special settings or supports are required. PLA works fine. Quantities required for 6 spools:
- 24x Husky Spool Holder TUSH
- 10x Husky Spool Holder Clip
- 6x Filament Port Inner Plate
- 6x Filament Port Outer Plate
Assembly
Once all of the plates are printed, use a soldering iron or other hot method to press the heat-set inserts into the filament port inner plates (in the side with the larger holes).
Use the ball bearings to hold together each pair of spool holders. Lay out the spool holders in the box and use the filament reals that you already have to space them appropriately. Use the spool holder clips to clip together the feet of the pairs of spool holders between filament reels.
Once you have aligned the filament reels how you like them, pick 6 locations in one long side of the box for the filament ports. You can use the Filament Port Outer Plate as a template and mark the center of the holes. Use a 1/8" drill bit to drill 5 holes per plate. Use the M3x12 screws to attach the plates to the box.
