Introduction
Inspired by the Filament Spindle MK1 by makerbot and the Printable Horizontal Filament Spool by Spacexula, this provides a printable built-in filament management solution. Hopefully bringing an end to tangled messes and bizarre hanging contraptions!
Planned Features
- can either be attached to the Mendel frame or sit under it
- stackable for multiple spools and/or multiple extruder configurations
- can either feed directly into a normal extruder or provide a mounting spot for a bowden fed extruder motor

Assembly
Coming Soon...
TODO
- order vitamins
- make some modifications to Printable Horizontal Filament Spool models (might need diagonal reinforcement?)
