This spool stand is compatible with all Creality Ender 3 models,  Ender 3 "clones" from other brands, Creality K1, K1C, K1 MAX, Ender 5 (Pro and S1), Qidi X-Plus 3, etc. See the list at the bottom of this page for the printable accessories for various machines. 

This versatile spool stand allows you to remove the spool holders that are commonly attached to your printer frame that may be contributing to unwanted machine vibrations and flexure. By decoupling the spool from the machine frame, there is no longer a heavy object acting on the frame that changes mass as the filament is consumed. This is important to keeping input shaping profiles predictable.

Additionally, the top mount spool holder keeps your filament in an easy to access location for ease of replacement. Some machines such as the K1 series from Creality have the original spool mount inconveniently located at the back of the machine. The included PTFE tube can be used with the printable adapters (see bottom of this page) to direct the filament from the top mount holder into the runout sensor behind the machine without ever having to awkwardly reach behind your K1 / K1 MAX. 

The included 'Super Deluxe' spool holder makes swapping spools fast while maintaining compatibility with a huge variety of spool shapes and sizes. The rotating friction on the Super Deluxe spool holder can be adjusted to prevent 'free wheeling' where the filament may excessively unwind. Please note that only 1kg spools or less should be mounted.

Another advantage to this system is the direct filament path from the overhead spool into the extruder on the Ender 3 style machines. The filament runout detection sensor can be relocated to the top of the frame using the free adapters (see bottom of this page for STL files). The included runout detection sensor wire harness extension also makes the relocation very easy. Now your filament has a low friction path directly from the spool to the extruder with minimal obstruction.

For even taller framed machines, there will be a printable extension found at the link below.
