I liked the mount I found on thingiverse , however, it wouldn't work with my US-model hose reel I bought from here.  It just needed some minor modification to get it to work with my reel. 

I enlarged hole diameter to 25.2 mm to fit the US model aluminum posts on the hose reel, and also removed the diagonal piece inside the hole that would prevent the post from going through the hole properly.

I included and tweaked the modifier objects included in the original 3MF here with the following suggested print settings:

  • 5-6 walls
  • 0.2 mm layer height
  • No supports needed.
  • 25-30% infill where the yellow modifiers are shown here in the picture.  
    • Unless you're using Bambu Slicer (setup already in the “_bbl” 3MF file) you'll need to turn the objects into modifiers and make the change yourself.  Import the 3MF as separate objects so they all go flat on the plate, and then combine them if necessary in your slicer before changing their type to modifier (exact steps depend on slicer software UX).
  • Printed here in Bambu ASA for UV resistance, but PETG probably also fine.  I would advise against ABS (UV degradation) or PLA (creep over time).

 

I thought this might be useful for someone else, so I post it here.
