Spool Holder:

This modified K2 spool holder added hole for m3 heat insert.

The heat insert goes on the far side of where the clip would be attached.

The distance between center of each holes is 80mm.  

 

Rack Mount End K2 Style Bracket: (new, 2023-12-26)

Mounting Bracket inspired by the K2 Spool Holder, which is in fact a “shorter” version that fit the visual style.  Add 2 heat insert on each side and use the Mounting Bracket to mount on the top of the printer

 

Mounting Brackets:

The bracket where designed with the following idea in mind:

  • not interfere with the top pannel on a Voron
  • leave clearance for easy panel removal
  • Compatible with t-nuts and ball nuts.

 

End Caps:

Based on original design, modified to allow some margin when cutting.

Original cap can be used if you cut exactly the lenght you needed.

While any cap work anywhere, I use the 27mm on the top and 15mm on the lower tube.

 

Hardware required:

  • 4 x heat insert
  • 4 x M3x25 or 30 if you screw from the other side, M3x8 or 12 is fine if you screw on the closest side.
  • 4 x nuts (ball or t)
  • 4 x M3x8 to screw in the nuts.

 

Naming Convention:

Inspired by voron, file prefixed by [a] can be printed in your accent color, suffixed by xN mean N pieces of that file.

 

Filament used:

I used Sparta ABS+ Sparkle Obsidian Black and Sparkle Fuchia Rose.

I didn't test these in PLA, but tolerance should be good as well.
