Once again, IKEA comes to the rescue! With this thing you can fix ~22mm dowels (or a broom stick, if you're in a pinch) in almost any length to your Omar and subsequently stick your spools on there!

Instructions

Print in your favourite material, with your favourite settings. The load path is pretty straight forward, so I'd consider anything above 15% infill and 1.6mm walls overkill. My PLA-PHA specimens held up fine for more than four months in roasty-toasty summer temperatures.

The dowel can be slightly under-/oversized, 20mm up to 25mm should also work fine. The stuff I picked up at the local hardware store was 22mm, so that's what's going into the description! :D

As a small note:

I personally keep my spools in 3L-Toppits zip bags, what for keeping the dust away but also for moisture control, with a small baggy of silica gel packed with each spool.
