Mini Filament Spool
🕑 Added 2023-11-20 18:13:04 +0000 UTCThe perfect 3D print to show your customers all of the different colors your shop offers! Benchys and other small calibration prints are a thing of the past. Every time you buy a new spool of filament you can print out a mini spool and grow your collection so you'll always have a reference for every filament you've used. These mini spools have enough room on the sides to add a small label so you can include information about the spool like brand, color name, and filament type.
The threaded design allows for these mini spools to be fully assembled without any adhesive!

Would it be possible to make these into rings.. for fingers.
Alexander Valdes
this as a stash box or compartment box would be nice

Awesome now when are we getting a creative solution to display these? :)
Daniel Gillett
could you make a keychain version?

A Keychain version would be perfect
Deborah Lennon
I also would love these with optional keychains

Need a mini spool rack for these

I would love to see a shelf for display!

Ok thank you.

No supports required to print. I printed these at 10% infill with standard grid infill pattern.
Anthony Rivera
Do you print these with supports? Also, do you have a preferred infill percent/pattern for these?
Debbie Ritchie
Cool, Printing as I'm typing will you be doing a storage solution for them?

There's been a few different creators who have made their own designs for filament spools. Mine is much different than anything that currently exists. The design you're referring to is extremely small, about the size of a quarter. My design has correct proportions and is made to resemble a real filament spool. When you hold a piece of filament next to my model you'll see that the 3D printed filament is exactly the same size, making this model look like a real mini spool. My model was also designed so it has room to add small labels to each side to include information about the spool like brand, color name, and filament type. No other models on the market have the characteristics of my model.

Can you add a key ring loop to one side of the spool please? I have something similar, but I don’t think it allowed commercial use.

Very cool idea!

With rainbow filament you’ll need to print multiple in the same print to get every color in the spool. This will vary between different filaments as some change colors faster than others.

How do these turn out with rainbow spools, and other color change spools?
