Filament dryer mod for food dehydrator

thingiverse

There is now a single piece version available for 330mm/13"+ print beds: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3468826 3-4-19 Glue up version prototype: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3470025 This is a riser for the common Rosewill/Best/Flexzion/Yobo food dehydrators, designed to hold 2 one-kilogram spools in place without damaging your food trays. With this mod, you don't need to destroy your food trays to fit a spool. The dehydrator it's based on sells for about one-third the price of an exact same filament dryer unit. There are two versions available: a three-part and a four-part unit, with the three-part panel being quite large. I've included a 4-part STL file that includes two of the four necessary panels required for assembly. This design will print on a typical 8.4-inch bed with ease. I've added .5mm clearance on the pin shaft to ensure smooth operation. If this isn't enough, you can scale the pins in the x-y directions or drill out the holes slightly. The pins are optional and can be substituted with bolts or even zip ties if needed.
