Airtight Filament Drybox Feed Through

thingiverse

This is a remix from an awesome drybox designed by mcfada at thingiverse.com/thing:1359419. I made several changes to the original design because I found it quite challenging to rely solely on glue to adhere printed parts onto the drybox itself. To address this, I added two M4 screw holes to each part. A slot for an M4 nut is located on the back side, making installation much more secure and easier to align. Adding a few layers of glue between pieces also makes it airtight. Parts Needed: 1 x Pneumatic connector at s.click.aliexpress.com/e/nEqbqJI. 2 x M4 12mm screws. 2 x M4 Nuts. 2 x M4 Washers. Useful Tools: - A soldering gun to make holes in the drybox, which I find much easier than using a drill. - An electric screwdriver. Note: The M4 nut slots in V1.0 are designed for a tight fit but may be smaller than some M4 nuts. This might require using a soldering gun to heat M4 nuts while pushing them into each hole. However, V1.1 doesn't need this process. I use this drybox in conjunction with the socket at thingiverse.com/thing:743280.
