Ultimaker 2+ Spool Holder?

[latreides 4]

I have been trying to find (with very little success) an STL file for the official UM2+ spool holder.  Does such a file exist? 

 

I know there is one for the UM3 at https://www.youmagine.com/designs/ultimaker-3-spool-holder  but I could not find anything for the UM2/UM2+

You should find it on Github https://github.com/Ultimaker somewhere in the UM2 or UM2+ repository.

I tried looking through the various repositories there, but I could not find any spool holder listed. 

 

The two that looked the most promising were the UM2 https://github.com/Ultimaker/Ultimaker2 and the UM2+ https://github.com/Ultimaker/Ultimaker2Plus repos, but I could not find any mention of the spool holder in either of them.  Are you certain they are found on github?  I assume they would be STEP files, rather than STL?

You are right, there is spool holder for UM3 and for the UM2Go only. Not sure at the moment if the UM2Go is the same for UM2 and UM2+, I assume it is, but not 100% sure.

 

You can find it here: https://github.com/Ultimaker/Ultimaker2Go/tree/master/1718

 

And a STEP file can be imported into any CAD software and then exported as STL, so that is ok.

Hi,

 

I recently printed one out using a file from thingiverse to hold a 1kg spool,

This one I'll do soon to save me changing them over when I go from 750gm to 1kg.

Hopefully this helps.
