My first Thingiverse upload!
The TAZ printers at my job originally had spool holders that sat directly vertical of the printer, which caused it to bump into the cabinet and did not allow for the printer to be moved back. By designing a spool holder that's meant to come out of the top rail at an angle, it allows for a little more freedom in moving the printer.
Includes a standalone piece that can be printed twice for smaller printers as well as a combined piece for larger printers. Designed for a 3/4" PVC pipe, but a custom 3D-printed tube can be made to fit the spool holder.
Didn't have the right screws so the spool holder is fastened with zip ties in the images, but they also seem to do the job quite well.
