thingiverse

A clever silica gel container to keep your filament dry, designed with a focus on affordability and reuse. Buying silica gel in bulk is far more cost-effective, and it can even be recharged for multiple uses. This innovative design combines the precision of laser-cut acrylic parts with the versatility of 3D printed corner pieces. With a capacity of approximately 700 grams, this container is perfect for storing sufficient amounts of silica gel to keep your filament dry. To assemble this container, you'll need to cut four main components: two long sides and two short sides from 1/8-inch acrylic sheet using a laser cutter. Additionally, you'll require eight corner pieces that can be printed using a 3D printer. To complete the assembly, you'll need the following hardware: * (24) M3 x 8 mm machine screws * (24) M3 nuts
