After being frustrated with changing spools out frequently I have decided to tackle the problem by not switching spools at all.
This will allow you to mount your spools of filament on the wall above your printer.
This holder utilizes PVC pipe to allow the spools to spin smoothly. This is designed for rolls with at least 2 inches(~50mm) of inner diameter on the spool.
Currently a work in progress, the only part finished as of right now are the PVC pipe end caps.
The cap rests inside PVC pipe with an ID of 40.4mm and has a hole in the center for a 608 bearing to be inserted. 8mm threaded rod is then inserted through the bearings for the entire apparatus to spin on and the bearing is secured with 8mm nuts on each side.
More parts are to follow including the bracket to actually mount the holder to the wall.
