This is a top mount spool holder created specifically for the HE3D K280 delta printer. You might be able to adapt it to other delta printers of similar size.
It should support a wide range of filament spools. I have tested it with Paramount and 3DXTECH spools.
The build also requires your choice of hardware to assembly it plus mount it to your printer. I used M3 bolts + hammerhead nuts to mount to the extrusion. I can't recall what I used to assembly the support arms to the center plate.
You will need to print 3 of the support arms and one of each of the other parts.
You will also need to purchase 1 precision sealed bearings. I purchased mine from Amazon: (2 Pack) PGN - R16-2RS Sealed Ball Bearing - C3-1"x2"x1/2" - Lubricated - Chrome Steelhttps://www.amazon.com/PGN-R16-2RS-Sealed-Bearing-Lubricated/dp/B07MWH2G8Z/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=%282+Pack%29+PGN+-+R16-2RS+Sealed+Ball+Bearing+-+C3-1%22x2%22x1%2F2%22+-+Lubricated+-+Chrome+Steel&qid=1617325402&sr=8-1
Keep in mind that in order to use a top mount like this you will need to turn your filament drive motor upside down. You'll have to also experiment with the position of the filament guide to get the best out of it depending on how high/low you mount your filament drive motor.
I really enjoy having my filament spool mounted up on top away from my workspace. Hope you enjoy it too!
