Hydrometer Mount For PLA Filament Storage

thingiverse

This is a super simple mount for a hydrometer purchased from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JXOKQVW?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00 My PLA filament gets ruined after about one day of exposure due to my humid area, so I keep it stored in a Zip-Lock Weathertight bin with desiccants. To keep track of humidity levels within the container, I created this easy mount and fixed it inside using double-sided tape for outside visibility. The Autodesk 123D file is attached for modification purposes.
