<p><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="/users/AlanGP" class="mentioned-user">@AlanGP</a> I have used some larger 1.2k (2.6lbs) rolls. I usually respool 0.5k on a seperate spool because the manufacturer rolls can stick from manufacturing or shipping (temps). But I have used these larger rolls on this coaster by removing 1 of the screws in the base. That allows it to pull out further. If you secure it with a couple washers, it has no problem. </p>

I printed with a Printrbot Simple Metal and heated bed. Bed Temp 70 C - actually measures 60 C on surface.

Made one - very nice. Not quite wide enough for NUBUS spools (95mm) available in Europe but works if you flip the bearings to the outside
Thank you

<p>I used m3 x 14mm to hold the bases together and the walls to the base are m3 x12mm. That is about the shortest length. You can probably go a couple mm longer and not have any problems and of course you can strengthen the mounts with longer screws by adding washers. The bearing are regular 608zz skate bearings.</p>

What length M3 socket head cap screws did you use?
