DRWR and Spoolbox
I purchased the DRWR and Spoolbox combo and initially was only going to do the DRWR. I was hesitant to do the spoolboxes because I did not want to give up my ability to use NFC tags. With the ability to read NFC tags from all filament manufacturers with the new PAXX function, it is a very compelling choice. Anyway, I got to thinking... What if I modified the 2 pieces that sit against the side case to have a tag holder that would be close enough for the reader to to read the tag. That way, I could use it and then put the tag with the spool when changing out to another one. I hope I am explaining this well enough. Here is a picture mocking up one of the 2 pieces. What are your thoughts?

What do I think? Well, I think it’s fantastic! I just don’t have the time or the skills to figure out how the sensor works or how it should be positioned. Keep me updated!
