Description

This is a more robust version of the original model. I thought I'd draw it following some suggestions/requests. I increased the thickness of the walls by 0.40mm and to limit the increase in weight I shortened the fillet by half a turn. However, the cover weighs a little more (there are about 50g of extra material), so choose the one that is most suitable for you.
I also wanted to warn you that the greater rigidity, together with any printing imperfections, could cause greater friction between the two parts during unscrewing, in this case I recommend adding a couple of sprays of silicone grease on the thread, you will see that everything it will flow perfectly again. I hope this new version is useful to someone.
Happy printing everyone!

Among the files at your disposal I have added the high version of the male part for spools with a thickness of up to 75mm. It is perfectly compatible with the previous version.
The file is called "STRONG_male_spool_cover_tall_version.STL".

can't wait to get home and try this out. I'll post a review as soon as it's done. Thanks for the quick redesign.

Go figure, I did it very willingly, thanks to you for your trust. Read the instructions carefully, it may be necessary to use a little silicone grease spray, because being more rigid the small printing imperfections could affect, even if slightly, the sliding of the thread. Thanks again and happy printing!

Very useful and aesthetically beautiful object. Tomany also performed a modification on a my requirement (larger size for wide spools). Everything perfect.
