Designer's tip
Print flat, as supplied. Measure the rim of your spool: pick the small size for rims of about 2 to 3 mm (usually plastic spools) and the large size for about 3.5 to 4.5 mm (usually cardboard spools). Print 10 of the size that fits; they easily fit on the bed together. Push the filament end through the hole, bend it over and click the clip onto the rim. Write on the hexagon with a permanent marker.
Frequently asked questions
Which size should I choose?
Measure the thickness of the spool rim. Size S fits rims of about 2 to 3 mm, usually plastic spools. Size L fits 3.5 to 4.5 mm, usually cardboard spools.
Does it work with 2.85 mm filament?
The hole is 2.3 mm, made for 1.75 mm filament. For thicker filament, enlarge the hole in the included model.py.
Can I write on the clip?
Yes, the hexagon is flat. A permanent marker works best on PLA and PETG.
