Summary
I created this mounting system so I could change out the filament easily on the Prusa i3 MK2. This design allows the filament to unroll naturally with barely any friction. It also puts a lot less pressure on the x-motor so it doesn't have to apply so much force on the filament roll.
I use this design with a 5mm all thread and my universal filament spool shown in the link below.

Overall, I can take the spool off a lot easier and my prints have a lot less mistakes to them.
Let me know if you have any questions. I would be happy to answer them.
