**Universal Dual Filament Dragon Clip**
This is a spool filament clip. It prints quickly, uses only about 1 gram of filament (0.33 metres of 1.75 mm filament), and is very easy to use.
It clips onto the spool of any brand of filament, so it's a universal clip. It can clip onto 1.75 mm filament or 2.85 mm filament, so it's a dual-filament clip. It's shaped like a dragon, so it's a dragon clip. Hence the name Universal Dual-Filament Dragon Clip.
The easiest way to use it is to snap the filament in from the back of the head to secure it and slide the filament out from the side to release it.

Why another filament clip.
I've always used filament clips that clip to the filament itself, but I was curious to try one that clips to the spool, so I searched Thingiverse for the best one. I found one that I determined was probably the best design, but it has errors when loaded into the slicer and it has unwanted branding on it. So I removed the errors…
