Problem Discovery

I previously designed a minimalist filament clip. Unfortunately, although I could avoid the obstruction of theAMS limit block, I couldn't escape the shadow of the plastic mold's draft angle. The original filament spool hole diameters also vary with different materials and batches. Most disappointing is the probability of detachment caused by AMS 2Pro and AMS HT rotary drying, which poses a risk of filament jams in subsequent prints

Problem Consideration

First, avoid design flaws

Firmness (draft angle of spool hole leads to easy detachment)
Device compatibility (avoid AMS limit block collision)
Drying resistance (prevent detachment during drying)
Special environment (more suitable for AMS rotary drying)
Compatibility (suitable for different brands of filament spools)

Then consider the cost

Material (small volume)
Time (short printing time)
Lifespan (avoid failure caused by material fatigue)

Finally, be unique

Appearance design (minimalist design that does not affect drying airflow)
Ergonomics (suitable for finger grip)
Operation and use (simple)
Perfect printing (seamless vase mode)

Problem Solving

Less is more

Mies van der Rohe

Simple can be harder than complex.

You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple.

Steve Jobs

Of course, the "less" in "less is more" does not refer to weight. However, this design coincidentally allows changing the weight by adjusting the model height. Vase mode = time-saving + material-saving + perfect appearance

This time, two different cross-sections were designed, functionally identical. The shape and color are similar to pomegranate seeds, so they are named Pomegranate Seeds

The simple rhombus shape can effectively reduce the contact area between the filament clip and the filament spool and allows warm air to pass through easily. Coupled with the lightweight and thin structure, it makes filament drying more even

Although very small and all angular, the hand feel is just right

The multi-faceted structure gives the thin 0.42mm shell stronger clamping force. A clear "click" sound can be heard with each installation, which is a reassuring feedback

Transparent filament can print a mirrored texture, making the simple shape exude a fashionable vibe. For storage, you can thread them onto a filament strand to make a "necklace" and hang them up, never worrying about losing them again

They can be installed upright or flat during drying. After all, being so thin and breathable, it will not affect heat transfer or air circulation at all
