A spool-holder for Cartesian printers with aluminium frame like the Tevo Tornado, CR-10 etc.
The spool-holder can be mounted at the lower frame (like the original Tornado spool-holder) or at the top of the frame. The spool-holder can handle spools with a width up to 95 mm.
Together with the flipped version you can make a double spool setup (see pictures).
For most of the printers, don't use the flipped version for the lower frame or for a single top-setup.
Due to the wide "bed" of the spool-holder the spool wobbles a lot less than it does at the broomstick-like holders. I think the angle at the top-setup gives a more natural flow of the filament than other models. There should be more tension on the top frame, but I can't notice it in the construction of the frame or in the print quality.
You can bold the holder to the frame with a M4-bolt and T-nut. Do not do this for the lower frame, it fits great as it is. For the top frame it is not necessary either, but it is hanging ove
