Description
This is just a derivative of a great spool holder from Charlespax, adapted with a plate to fit the BFB's printers. you don't need to drill to damage your printer to fix this stuff, this is a hook up thing!
Instructions
Download my STL files, print them as is. There is a big and a small holder for different spool size. (750gr/2.300gr) I used ABS with 0.5 layer thickness, infill of 40%, no raft, no support. Use 2 flat head screw of 8mm to assemble the plate to the holder. No need for bolt, normally...

That way it can print for hours wthout worry. But the hook is designed to be used all around the machine. So, you can have the spools in the back of the machine if you rather.

I just printer a bunch of the spoolholderasimple parts, without the plate. The hole spacing matched the angle iron holes of the Gorilla shelf next to my printer I've screwed them outside of the shelf for a spool rack.
