A print to stop spools slipping off?

Hi,

ive got a new spool of filament that the hole is too large and keeps sliding off my A1 mini. Does anyone know of a simple print that will slip over the spool holder to stop spools sliding off? I dont want anything to fit the diameter of the spool or anything, just something that will fit over the end to block it from sliding off.

thanks for any help!

There are a lot to choose from on Maker World. Some of them are for specific filament brands and some are more universal.

Hi - yeah Im a bit blinded by the amount of different things to be honest. Most look to be fore accommodating specific spools where im hoping to find something simple that will simply slot onto the end to block the spools sliding off rather than fitting the diameter of the central hole.

This is the one I used and it works absolutely perfectly. Seems finicky at first, but trust me. The guy has a video on YouTube where he walks you thru the problem and the solution and how to install it.

Edit: I think I misread the post. but you might like that too. lol

But here is one that isn’t specifically for the inner diameter of the spool
