Hey, everybody. I made another remix. As usual , this is a piece that you spent a lot of time and thread on and this piece doesn't make a lot of sense.
I looked at the spool holder and and scal replacement, I found this one by the author:

https://www.printables.com/model/817388-ender-3-v3-se-spool-roller-holder

This is what it looks like in the original.

What is the point of this design? 
The diameter of the shaft is much smaller than the diameter of the spool and the spool hangs on the shaft, when the filament is stretched, the plastic can be fed jerkily and this is not very good for the 3D printer.
I use plastic from different manufacturers and the internal diameter of the spool is constantly changing.
I removed the bearing and printed insert rings.
You can modify if necessary, create a new ring in any program.
The simplest is 3D builder, this program is available on all computers running WINDOWS.

all files in one place

Other than that, I wanted to redesign the top cover and make it more “mechanical” looking

top cover

All items are printed unsupported.
The top cover and shaft require support, with the label “support on platform only” I used the standard support.
After printing, you must remove the support and glue the ring on.

Warning.
In the beginning I planned to print this with subsequent painting, so I didn't perfectly create tolerances. Instead I used glue .

PETG Printing, ABS. How it will be on PLA I don't know, I don't use that material.
