This is my second design trying to come up with a solution for the “Jumping Spool” issues. I shared my first design “<a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/37390#profileId-35773" rel="nofollow noopener">AMS SPOOL GUARD”</a>, but after that… I tried to document and learn a bit more to understand why do the spools jumps in the first place. I shared some slow-mo video on facebook groups and got so many feedbacks (and mockings) I think understanding the cause would help come up with a better solutions… I think up to 3 things contributes to the spool jumps 1. When the filaments are low, the angle becomes sharper / steep.. so the extruder makes a more forward pull instead of downward… 2. Extruder speed is faster than the Front Roller, so it was holding it back (plus sharper angle too) 3. Tangled filament so for Tangled filament, it's probably for someone smarter than me to solve lol I am attempting to eliminate or at least reduce cause number 1, which is height differences. First try, I tried to modify the first design, and move the “bar” from the back to the front, using the same mount (which was a nice secure spot mount it) The problem with that idea I don't have a place for the mount for the left and right side of the AMS… <img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/613353/rich_content/e37c8aab-0f0a-44d0-b74a-ccb176d3b0da/screenshot-2023-10-13-at-21225-pm.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%226533e8de-8244-4d91-8f45-3027d0872bba%22%2C%22w%22%3A2424%2C%22h%22%3A1488%7D">&nbsp;I also tried the suggestion using the AMS Button + a longer PTFE attached This helped to reduce the wear and tear but it the ptfe tube is so flexible so it will still bend and the spool jumps too. Some one also suggested putting a battery to wedge the spool so it does not wobble, I tried that too (using the same mount as my previous design) with removable “wedges” of various thickness <img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/613353/rich_content/698daa02-f726-48fd-9823-36b783c63904/ptfe.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22f9afdcae-21e2-4bfe-9860-de866fae6acc%22%2C%22w%22%3A2275%2C%22h%22%3A1812%7D"> So instead I looked at the possibility of mounting it on the First Stage Feeder, so I took my spare one and measured the openings… <figure class="image image_resized image-style-align-left" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/613353/rich_content/d227a3ad-e665-4d91-a4c0-1c112fbb242f/img_5562.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%222fa0137b-b5e8-45ba-a9bb-89d9003968fa%22%2C%22w%22%3A4032%2C%22h%22%3A2268%7D"></figure>&nbsp;<figure class="image image_resized image-style-align-center" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/613353/rich_content/63fb7587-98e4-45af-b4a7-6221035b0033/screenshot-2023-10-12-at-84758-pm.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22a9663804-c66c-4afc-b38a-89c9d5f7001e%22%2C%22w%22%3A2152%2C%22h%22%3A1550%7D"></figure>Went through several iterations until I come up with the latest one.

I am still studying but at least this is for now one solution that might reduce the issues… I would love you to try and give me feedback… I included the 3MF for Bambu Studio, comes in 2 plates… if you want to use the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08M33CNS6?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1" rel="nofollow noopener">metal rod</a> and logo, you can print plate 1, if you don't then you can print Plate 2. 0.3 mm first layer , the rest 0.2 mm Layers - Adaptive Layer Gyroid infill at 30% to make it stiffer. Step files are also uploaded if you like to tinker / remix… please do. Any suggestion / comments please hit the reply :) <img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/613353/rich_content/b976f4ef-df35-4284-b3e9-64baceb676eb/build-plate.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22dd3f7935-07e1-4c02-8237-642bb1697be8%22%2C%22w%22%3A2462%2C%22h%22%3A1318%7D"> Thank You!

Another of many PTFE guides for the X1C and the AMS. This lines up the input feed.&nbsp;You should have longer M3 screws in the accessories kit that came with your printer.If you don't have any, you can buy any generic M3 hex socket screw kit off <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B31SC98Z" rel="nofollow noopener">Amazon</a>.&nbsp;You can find other models I have released for the X1C/AMS here:<a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/u/2811301167/collections/109412" rel="nofollow noopener">https://makerworld.com/en/u/2811301167/collections/109412</a>&nbsp;If you appreciate my models, please consider <a target="_blank" href="https://ko-fi.com/ultrajaxel" rel="nofollow noopener">buying me a coffee</a>!

<h2>New Universal Spool v2 released! <a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/de/models/125311#profileId-135347" rel="nofollow noopener">Click here</a>!</h2>&nbsp;Universal spool for using filament on cardboard spools or Refill Packs (like eSun Refill Filament) in the Bambu AMS. No rewinding necessary, simply transfer the cardboard or refill core to the universal spools. Suitable for core diameters (inside) from 75 to 100mm. With Jayo spools, it is a little tricky to remove the rather thick ring at the core. You need a sharp cutter and patience.<a target="_blank" href="https://youtu.be/YNShKH9P1Qs?si=-JpmYJoZzH9Go-eM" rel="nofollow noopener">Check out my new video with a steb by step tutorial.</a><ol><li>Measure the width of the cardboard spool (inside between the reels). </li><li>Carefully remove one side of the cardboard spool. </li><li>Screw the corresponding core (50, 55 or 60mm width) onto a reel and insert it into the cardboard core.</li><li>Then turn over and remove 2nd side of cardboard reel.</li><li>If desired, then insert Silicatube (with silica gel or ballast).</li><li>Then screw on second roll, done.</li></ol>Now the filament can be used in the AMS without any problems. I made 2 designs of the reels, design nr. 2 needs less printing time. I use PLA (it is flexible enough for the core) with these settings: 3 walls 3 top and bottom layer 12% Gyroid Infill 0,16mm layerhigh (with variable layerhigh for the reels if you want)&nbsp;22.11.2023&nbsp;added the new v2 Cores (as Print Profile)<figure class="image image_resized image-style-side" style="width:37.94%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/797328/2023-11-22_2f2f7f0bccecd.jpg"></figure> The number of spiral arms was reduced from 4 to 3, while the diameter was increased from 110 to 117 mm. This means that the spools sit even better and less material is used, which also reduces the printing time slightly.&nbsp;The v2 Core with 60mm was tested by me with various filament and is therefore compatible with the following cardboard spools:<ul><li>Creality</li><li>eSun</li><li>GratKit</li><li>Kexcelled</li><li>Overture</li><li>Sunlu</li></ul><figure class="image image_resized image-style-side" style="width:37.86%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/797328/2023-11-22_61966bfd41a5d.jpg"></figure>&nbsp;Not yet tested, but should fit:<ul><li>Eryone</li><li>Bambu Lab Refill</li></ul>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.10.2023 <ol><li><a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/43852#profileId-45166" rel="nofollow noopener">new rewind core</a>.

Attention! There seem to be several versions of the AMS where the slots differ from this version. Please check before printing if the version fits. I try to get the dimensions of the other version and will then upload the bracket in the adapted version!I added a design drawing with measurements please check it! Here is the Variation for the 3 slotted AMS Version.&nbsp;Nothing special - just a quick Design to mount the AMS on the wall.Works fine for me. If there are any Problems, don't hesitate to contact me!Recommended print settings: 5 Walls/Perimeters, 5 Top/Bottom, 35% infill with ABSFor example <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nobufil.com/abs-filament" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.nobufil.com/abs-filament</a> which is currently the best ABS i know! Perfect layer bonding, ok smell, great colors (even Sparkle ones) - and recycled out of industrial ABS. No, i'm not working there, just impressed.
