Why is it better than the others?

My spinning filament swatch box stands out due to its excellent storage design, which allows for smooth rotation. Additionally, the wheel can be turned in both directions. If you miss the desired swatch, you don't need to make a full round; you can simply turn it back. If the base plate rotates on smooth surfaces, felt pads or rubber stoppers can be applied to provide a solution.

 

For even smoother rotation, I have incorporated a 608zz ball bearing instead of a plug mechanism. The construction is secured with an M3 x 8 / 10 mm screw. If you don't have a 608zz ball bearing available, you can also use a 3D-printed version.

Some facts about the spinning filament swatch box:

There are two versions. One where you have to melt in an m3 insert nut. And another where the thread is already printed. I would recommend the version with the insert nut.

You can store all 80 filament swatches (that's how many are in the original swatch pack from Bambulab). If you have an AMS, you can print the Bambulab logo in the first 7 layers. If you don't have this option, use the print profile without the logo or change the color in the slicer.

 

You can also store and use the spinning filament swatch box on an IKEA skadis wall.

Additionally, I have designed a cover to ensure the swatch holder can be transported safely and protected from dust.
