Are you looking to relocate your farming p1p printer spools to the front for easier access and visbility? If so, this kit does just that!

 

I have 5 P1P printers in a shelving unit that made it difficult to access the rear spool holder for swaps and refills. With the printers being so close together I was unable to utilize any of the side mount options I came across in my search for a solution, so i made my own. The mount holds the spool off the p1p's frame and infront of the printers. This allows for quick access when using a shelving unit. Zero issues with loading from the front as long as your PTFE tubes are pushed all the way into the connectors.  

 

Parts required:

 

 

  • x1 - PTFE tube. 
    • I used the spare section that came with my P1P's. May need to trim a few inches off as they all seem to be different sizes.

I've probably made 25 differnet spool holder designs but nothing seems to track as straight as a basic cylinder with a flared end. Excited to see what others have for ideas with the spool holder. If you decide to make your own holder - you simply need a 25mm x 10mm base on it that will slide into the side mount - the rest is up to you and your imagination.

 

Happy printing!
