The bearings provide a very smooth spin. I found that that in some rare cases, the frictionless spin can be problematic, so I designed a version of the holder w/o bearings as well (link)

The parts require no supports, and no special slicing settings (if you want to ensure extra strength you could bump the infill to 30% although it shouldn't be necessary)

It requires two 20x32x7mm bearings (Amazon link), which are press fitted inside the sleeve part (see pictures)

2mm foam padding is also recommended on the inside of the holder arm (Amazon link)

This was inspired by two other side spool holder designs (Flashforge Adventurer 5M Pro Quad Bearing Spool Holder and Flashforge 5m Pro Side Spool Holder)
