Filament Drier

thingiverse

Remix due to being very hard for me to print in PETG. I printed 6 in PLA with little problem, but the deformed over the last year and i found some rolls of filament would drag the bottom due to the rollers being too far apart.I also didnt care for the lose silica, and perfered the container built into the base of the stand.Created and offset due to the taper at the bottom of the container. Can be scaled as needed.These fit the rubber maid 21 cup food container, though they are getting harder to find.Remix of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4976052Part List from thingverse01 Container The dry box is built inside 21 cup Rubbermaid food container. I have a link to the container attached below. I recommend searching in different stores for the best price,and if you find the clear one it would look even better.Container Link02 Bearings The design uses four 608 bearings, below are the cheapest ones I could find.Bearings Link03 Mini HygrometerAfter finishing all 9 of the prints I've realized that they have the white version of the same Hygrometer. Keep in mind that those are not the most accurate, so expect a margin of error.04 Indicator Silica GelI like the indicator silica over regular silica, it's easier to know when you need to change it, although it's redundant since the design is using a Hygrometer.Indicator Silica Link05 PTFE ID-4mm OD-6mmI used a tube with internal diameter of 4mm, this makes it possible to use the filament dry box with 2.85 (commonly referred to as 3mm) and 1.75 filaments.PTFE tube Link
