Filament Storage

thingiverse

I have been on the hunt for a perfect storage solution to display my 3D printed filament and prints for almost a year. What I really needed was a stylish way to organize them in the same space, without resorting to plastic bins that take up too much room or are just plain unsightly. To achieve this goal, I've built a Billy Bookcase with Oxberg Glass doors from Ikea. This project is still in its early stages and I'm working on making some adjustments as I go along. For instance, the filament itself has been placed onto the shelf for now but I am on the lookout for a better option that can securely hold them in place. Furthermore, to keep my unit sealed tight, I'll be covering all doors with protective coatings to prevent any air leaks from happening. To complement this effort, I've purchased rechargeable silica desiccant de-humidifier boxes which will be situated at the top and bottom sections of the bookcase. Not only does this help me control the environment within my printer but it also ensures my 3D prints stay preserved by keeping moisture levels to a minimum. To measure humidity, I've bought a digital hygrometer. Now that I'm moving forward with installing lights from Ikea - known as Dioder LED - inside the unit, my task is getting more substantial. It will soon be time for some neat tidying up and installing the remaining lower shelves that display my completed 3D prints alongside those filament spools, all the while keeping in mind how well the existing setup blends in with other things in The Nerd Cave. After exhausting months of research to find an attractive solution without wasting precious money or settling for clutter-prone items such as storage bins, which failed miserably due largely because almost nothing useful seemed available where I live, until one finally came up but people over there are indeed very picky! Here it fits nicely on my shelf; Micro3D has become a new neighbor of sorts within the printer collection now housed here within this unique home crafted especially with creativity - from both you and me combined. To be sure all filaments would securely stay in place despite size fluctuations which may cause them not fit properly without having issues related to how large they'd turn out. It also adds additional display options which could show case each completed 3D prints clearly & tastefully presented rather then taking the easy road towards storing similar contents within ordinary transparent plastic bins commonly used throughout different environments where items must always maintain their respective places as requested by others wanting it that way!
