Filament Dry Box and Spool Holder

thingiverse

I thought the designs I had seen for dry boxes could use some improvement for one reason or another. So, for this project I made new files with some improvements and put all the files you need for a complete a dry box in one place. Printed parts: Filaments passthrough guide (3 parts) • Passthrough_Guide_Outer_v2 (threaded for a push in quick connects for 6mm Bowden tubes) • Passthrough_Guide_Inner • Passthrough_Cap_v2 (threaded to outer guide, will cover quick connect0 Spool holders (with press fit points for 608 ball bearings) • Spool_Holder_Threaded_End_XX (three lengths 35, 55, and 75mm) • Spool_Holder_Pocket_End Spool axle supports • Axle_Support_Inner_N_Degrees (six versions to compensate for tub draft angle) • Axle_Support_Outer_N_Degrees (six versions to compensate for tub draft angle) Update: January 19th 2021 Added new printed parts: Filaments passthrough guide with 45 degree off axis angle • Passthrough_Guide_Outer_45d • Passthrough_Guide_Inner_45d Large Spool holders (with press fit points for 608 ball bearings) • Large_Spool_Holder_TE_45 (threaded lengths 45mm) • Large_Spool_Holder_PE Links for some of the purchased hardware are below.
