Spool Two-Layer Rotating Egg Holder

Description
- Introduction:
From the moment it was produced, it took on the important task of holding filament. After spending seven days and nights diligently working in the AMS, its mission is finally complete, and now it faces the fate of being ruthlessly discarded.
However, this simple-minded designer gave it a whole new mission. After a dramatic transformation, it has a new name — the double-layer rotating egg holder...
To make use of this filament spool, I truly lost some hair, and after looking at many other works, besides turning them into storage boxes, I felt the rest were impractical.
One day, seeing eggs scattered in the refrigerator, I came up with this idea. The distance between the top and bottom plates of the spool was a bit small for the height of the eggs. Fortunately, by tilting it at a certain angle and adding curved egg slots that conform to the egg's surface, the eggs can be perfectly placed inside, and it's also very convenient to take them out. With 9 eggs on each of the two layers, that's 18 eggs in total, which is sufficient.
If that's not enough, the handle is screwed in and can be removed to continue extending upwards. I chose grey, which blends seamlessly with the filament spool.
A bearing with an outer diameter of 22mm, an inner diameter of 8mm, and a thickness of 7mm is installed at the bottom, making rotation smoother.
Only suitable for Bambu Lab spools, because Bambu Lab spools can be split into two halves (an excellent design).

Hats off to human imagination and creativity!

- Installation process:
A bearing with an outer diameter of 22mm, an inner diameter of 8mm, and a thickness of 7mm is needed. The bearing installation hole might be a bit tight. Considering factors like different equipment and filament sinkage rate, it's designed to be a little tight,
If it's too tight, you can sand it down a bit. If it's too loose, wrap a few layers of transparent tape around it. The main purpose is to prevent the base from falling off when lifted.
Update on December 12, 2025:
Update content:
Added multi-spool stacking accessories, theoretically allowing for infinite stacking (as long as the refrigerator is tall enough).
