Simple Spool Holder Stand for Spool Holder Handle

With the project

Aluminum Extrusion Mount and Spool Holder Handle - Full Bear Upgrade compatible

I introduced a simple handle-based spool holder to be mounted on an aluminum extrusion like the Full Bear Upgrade of the Original Prusa MK2 / MK3 uses.

As the handle is designed with a 16mm threading, I created this stand to which the handle can also be bolted.

This stand can be used single-sided or with handles on both sides, making it a dual spool stand.

The current version of the stand is meant for 20 cm spools (common 750g to 800g spools)

Please read my print settings recommendations down below.

Your opinion on this design and suggestions to make it even better is appreciated

Please also take a look at my other designs, printer parts, and tools.

Notes

Use three or more perimeters and the option "ensure vertical shell thickness" enabled (if using Slic3r Prusa Edition) to get the best result on the chamfered edges. However, this option slows down the print significantly.

I like to use the honeycomb infill, especially because it generates a rim around the threading supporting the thread's offset circles.
