Summary

This 3 piece top mount spool holder requires minimal assembly and is super stable.
This version is a modification to my original top spool holder design and intended for newer Anet A6/A8 printers. It addresses the problem of the smaller spool rod provided with newer Anet printer. It should work as long as the provided threaded rod is 130mm or longer. The arms have been pushed inward 20mm as compared to my original design (see the first picture). Again, this should handle any threaded rod of 130mm or longer. Unlike my original top spool holder design, this one does require supports when printing.

When loading/mounting your filament spool, remember to hang it on the lowest rung possible for greatest stability. This spool holder still accommodates my small "quick change" spool sprocket listed below.
