Not that much, really. Maybe 200 g total for the rollers and the frame. The frame is 300mm tall, which may be a problem for many printers.

This inspired me to make my own version that can take 5 reels (for a 5 colour Diamond hot end). I used less plastic and lot of threaded rod but my version isn't free standing. [somei3deas.wordpress.com]
Thanks for the inspiration Mark - I gave you a mention in my blog.

Looks good! I like using the weight of the roller assembly to keep it down on the spool flanges. You can't beat the reliability of gravity.
