Screw-On Large-Hole Spool Holder
Created today
Description
A plate-mounted spool holder for filament spools with large central holes. A hollow 48 mm spindle rises from a flat mounting plate and ends in a flared lip that keeps the spool from sliding off.
Remix hooks
- Spindle diameter (48 mm): change to suit your spool bore; most big-hole spools measure 50–58 mm, so leave 2–4 mm of play.
- Spindle length (70 mm): stretch for wide spools, shorten for slim ones.
- Plate (110 × 64 × 6 mm): screw holes sit 44 mm either side of centre, 4.5 mm with countersinks. Move them to match your panel, or add a third hole.
- Lip: 58 mm with a 45° underside so it prints without supports. Make it a removable cap for easy spool swaps.
- Wall (3 mm): thicken for heavy 3 kg spools, or add ribs.
Prints plate-down with the spindle pointing up. Mount with the plate against a vertical panel so the spindle points sideways; a pair stacks well for dual spools.

A flat 20 mm round disc, for when a 2D circle needs to become something you can print and hold. A bare circle has no thickness, so this gives it enough to print as a solid piece.

Inner clearance: 50 mm × 38 mm Overall footprint: 60 mm × 48 mm Frame width: 5 mm uniform wall Thickness: 4 mm Z-height
4 hål test prototyp
A simple 68x80mm rectangular mounting plate with a 1mm thickness, fitted with four 18.5mm through-holes. Remix and Adjust Plate Thickness: Currently at 1mm for a fast, flush fit. If you need it to bear weight, bump this up to 3mm or 5mm. Hole Clearance: The 18.5mm holes are sized to give half a millimeter of wiggle room on standard 18mm hardware. Hole Spacing: Spaced at 34mm across the short axis and 40mm along the long axis. Adjust those translate distances if your mounting hardware changes.
