So I've come into a problem with my cardboard spools where some of them are either too small to fit or have warped to a degree the rotational wheels no longer allow the spool to turn.
I've tried a few adapters that I've found either in this server or on file sites like thingiverse, printables, etc. to see if it would help with traction or even allowing the smaller ones to fit the device but alas, they all have netted bad results such as worse traction, the adaptor literally not fitting properly even with resizing or some odd designs that dont follow the design of the spool the maker's say they are designed for...
I've never been a fan of the cardboard spools due to how flimsy and easy they are to tear and now that its rendering some of them completely unusable I need a solution. If anyone has any solutions to this issue I would be happy to try them out :)

Printer: Creality K2 Plus with CFS
Filament PLA (Eryone, Inland brands)
any other info i can provide if needed :)

Download and check dims of the bambu spool they have on makerworld, print some off and transfer old to new, you can even print a gadget for respooling as well
