Summary

New version with 4 bearings: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4458183

For the new enclosure of my Prusa printer, I needed a new filament spool holder. I wanted one that is fully 3d printed, but with bearings and also optimized for an enclosure (filament goes directly down). I didn't find one, so I designed this one myself.

For the gear bearings, I used the great scad script from emmett. Thanks for sharing!
