Adventurer 3 Spool Adapter (New Version)

irishfrog made an exelent spool adapter for the Flashforge Adventurer 3. Sadly Flashforge has changed their machines slightly, going from three spokes to four in the spool holder, and the adapter will not fit newer machines. So I made the changes necessary for it to fit.
The new adapter is also 25 mm longer, to allow for the wider spools I use that can be 75 mm, or even 80 mm at times.
This means we have to split the adapter into two to fit it on the plate of the Adventurer 3. To make it even stronger I split it into three parts, to allow for a "solid" axel through the adapter. This means we have a seam, I used hot glue to seal it, so I suggest using an outer sleeve. A toilet paper roll will do just fine.
No changes where made to the outer end of the adapter and the rest of the parts provided by irishfrog should work fine with this. I have personally tried the end cap nut and it fits just fine.
The axel could probably be even longer since a good portion of i vanishes into the machine.
