Ok, the title is a bit misleading.
But i had a mini spool of filament that i wanted to print with, and the hole in the center was a bit small to install it in the standard location. And while i was fumbling on top of the printer looking for a means to install it and what part i could design to accommodate the mini spool i noticed the little plastic screw tops that are used to hold the top plate attached to the machine.
I just put the spool on top of the screw top and it worked wonderfully, i can put 3 mini spools on top of my printer without any modifications!
PS: don't mind the other stuff on top of the printer.
