IKEA Dry Box Rollers

thingiverse

Keep your filament fresh while printing. We all understand how crucial it is to keep our filament fresh, but it's an annoyance taking it in and out of the ziplock bag. Moreover, while you're printing, your filament is exposed to the air. Nylon and PVA can start deteriorating within hours of exposure. These rollers are designed to fit perfectly into an IKEA box (Samla 39x28x28 #798.508.75). With a bit of weather stripping and lid clips, you can print directly from your dry storage container. This three-reel version utilizes the tubes and bearings that come with the Prusa MMU2 kit and has space for two 100mm wide reels (same as MMU2 rollers) and one 86mm reel (wide enough for Prusament 70mm reels). There are two options for the dry storage container screws; the Festo Screw and the PTFE screw. The former features threads for screwing in a Festo connector, and the latter is just a 3mm hole that you can push a piece of PTFE tubing through.
