Tabletop spool holder

A fully parametric and fully printable tabletop spool holder, designed to use the least amount of plastic (~50cm³).

All parts can be printed in one go on one tray, even with a relatively small machine (min 170×170).

Customize

Please don’t scale the .stl. You can adjust the design according to your needs by editing the variables in the attached OpenSCAD file.

Customizable parameters are:

material thickness and spaces between the different pieces
length and radius of the rod
height of the pillars
length and height of the bases

The material saving mode that makes the pieces hollow can be disabled, even though they should already be robust enough.

Print

Comment out the preview function call (put “//” before “preview_all()”) and uncomment the ones concerning the pieces that you want to make, or “print_all()” if you want to print all pieces on one tray.

Then, compile and render (F6), export as STL and slice :)

Sucessfully printed using:

ABS and PLA
20% infill
0.3mm layer height
