Both spools on the left

Post by zemlin » Sun May 15, 2016 3:42 pm

I'll be installing a dual upgrade sometime soon, but the right side of my printer is already occupied by my Raspberry PI and Web Cam.
I'm thinking about options for putting both spools on the left side of the machine. Anyone already done that with great success?

At this point I'm thinking of a T-shaped spool holder so both spools are parallel to the X-Axis at the back of the machine.

I just detached completely from the machine and that works very well.... AirTripper's Pocket Rollers....(you can place the rollers wherever you need them):
