X2D & P2S Spool Holder | Left & Right | w/Bearings

06/10/26 Update: I have published a new version of the spool holder, which includes 608RS bearings to ensure the roller moves with little to no friction where it can help it. I pushed this change back a while because I couldn't seem to get it to look good, but I am happy with the result now. The new fitment is designed to be lightly tapped in with a hammer so its nice and snug on the bearings and the frame of the holder. I personally printed my spool holder in ABS GF because its functional, temperature resistant, and looks amazing with the glass fiber texture. The bearings I used are found here.

05/03/26 Update: Please do not print this in PLA if you are using the heated chamber. I did my first heated chamber print and it absolutely melted the heck out of my spool holder because it was PLA.

04/27/26 Update: I removed majority of the bottom fillet, converting to a 65 degree chamfer. I did this because I received many reviews that the prints were failing on this overhang. Please continue to help me improve my designs in the future, thank you!

I designed this spool holder mainly because the filament kept hitting the wall behind my printer, and I've got limited space. The new spool holder I designed pushes the center of the spool about 110mm forward, nice, very secure and strong on the side of the printer. The spool holder prints easily and screws right into the factory spot using the same screws. It uses the factory PTFE tube coupler and bracket as seen in the last image. No supports! This spool holder is compatible with the P2S and the X2D from my personal experience, there's plates for both the left and right side of the printer. The new version as of 06/10/26 includes 608RS skateboard bearings to improve usability and wear down the extrusion motor less. With less friction from bearings, your machine will sound and improve better.

Directions:
1. Start by removing the original spool holder by gently wiggling and pulling until it unclips and slides off.

2. Insert the strengthening tab into the dovetail slot on the spool holder, check the printed one for proper orientation. If it doesn't sit flush give it a few taps with something to seat it fully.

3. Using your allen key, remove the two machine screws holding the mounting plate on. Keep these screws for the next step.

4. Insert your 608RS bearings into the roller. If they don't seat easily, give them a few light taps with a hammer. It's supposed to be a nice snug fit.

5. Insert the roller into the spool holder frame, giving it a few light taps with a hammer to seat fully. Then, insert the end piece. If the fitment is not tight due to tuning on your filament profiles, I recommend using a small amount of adhesive to ensure it doesn't fall off.

4. Align your new printed spool holder and it will slot into place with the little indent. While holding it in place carefully, insert screws and tighten, careful not to strip or overtighten.
5. Insert the PTFE guide piece into the new spool holder. This can be done by firmly but lightly holding and wiggling while pressing down. Excess force may cause it to break, it should just push in.
