Modular dehydrator extension panels (320mm diameter)

thingiverse

The nice modular dehydrator extension by davidhbrown is for 240mm dehydrators. Those weren't available, so I purchased a Rosewill RHFD-15001 unit from Amazon. It's a larger 320mm dehydrator, but I didn't see any modular extensions that I liked specifically for this unit. My design variant doesn't require any support or rafts. I printed all 6 panels at the same time on my prusa i3 mk3s I purchased my dehydrator from the following [Amazon link for US $40.](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018UR4XJI/) Print 6 of the panels, and 12 of the staple clips to assemble them. It takes a few minutes to assemble, but then it's easy to stack the dehydrator trays with these extensions. No modification is needed on the dehydrator trays themselves. These pieces are 94 mm tall and 161 mm long (print dimensions). They will add 86 mm space between dehydrators. This is big enough for any spools I have seen. More than one can be used at a time to dry several spools. I use them by sitting one on each of the dehydrator spacers included with the machine. I would suggest using PETG for the panels, so that you can dehydrate PETG filament without worrying about the panels melting or deforming. Please comment if you would like any modifications made. For more information, refer to a nice [DIY dehydrator guide](https://letsprint3d.net/how-to-make-a-filament-dryer/) I also like the [Filament Dryer / Dehydrator spool roller / spool holder](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2951494), though I haven't printed one. I'm not using a spool inside the dehydrator. I dehydrate the filament, then print with it normally on my printers.
