This is a different take on spool centering spacers for USS Drybox than Timetraveler's model. I was aiming for something smaller than a full cylinder.

You need a pair of these sleeves for the spool to sit properly. For some spools, the sleeves may need to be of different diameters, as the center bore sometimes is tapered (mostly in single-piece spools, because of draft angle).

If you print severeal diameters, it's useful to use different colour for each of them, then you can quickly locate a matching piece.

My sleeves work for typical 1kg spools, but with the default length of 15mm, they fall out of narrower spools, like 500g ones. You can adjust this generating your own sleeves, of course.
