I was running out of good spools for AMS. Waiting for the few BL spools to empty to re-spool them was frustrating and non practical. I decided to print a few spools with identical geometry as the original BL spools. I have included in design the very practical BL dismounting feature and a large desiccant tower.
I kept the same theme as the spool winder - cell pattern for improved visual, low material consumption and good mechanical proprieties.
The desiccant tower is automatically closed by the cover disc. This spool can be used without any problem in the AMS or in the spool winder without any flanges.
I used ABS and the closing mechanism between disks has worked perfectly. I did not test any other material.

Version V02 added for both models - in fact just the cover has now a continuous zone where it is possible to place a label. The models from the first version are kept as stl files with V01 naming added.
