thingiverse

# Description I like the [Filament Dry Box by Kazmar](https://www.printables.com/model/261178) very much because of its usability and the beautiful designs. And I also like the [remixed version by EHSIEI](https://www.printables.com/model/330083) because it is easy to build. ## Why I remixed I fixed two issues I found. And I also added three little modifications to the referenced remixed version for more easier building. In the end I got good results and I would like to share them. # BOM ## I.

The spool gets stuck in the ditch The spool often gets stuck in the ditch between the roller and the side panel when the frange of the spool is thin. I added side ribs both the roller to prevent dropping out. |Issue: Gets stuck by dropping out | Fixed: Side ribs are added| |---|---| | | | | | | ## 2. The bottom fitting is easy to break The bottom fitting is sometimes easy to break. I added thickness to them to get stronger. |Issue: Sometimes easy to break fittings | Fixed: Thickness is added| |---|---| | | | | | | # Little modifications I added little modifications based on the remix by EHSIEI. ## 3. Side Panel A little modified of the side panel to use short two M5 bolts instead of a long M5x70 bolt and a nut. This is basically the same as EHSIEI's remix however the Mid-Air hole technique is used instead of plain bolt hole for easy printing. |The original: Nut hole with Mid-Air tech | This remix: Bolt hole with Mid-Air tech| |---|---| | | | ## 4. Connector The M5x20 version of the connector is based on the M5x30 version devised by EHSIEI. |The EHSIEI's version: for M5x30 | This remix: for M5x20| |---|---| | | | ## 5. Roller Shaft Printed version of the roller shaft is basically the same as EHSIEI's “beam” however this is an oval shape based instead of plain shaft based, there are two little differences. * The width is W=8mm same as ID=8mm of ball bearings, however the rounded shape is D=7.6mm oval for easy insertion. * The length is L=76mm, which is slightly longer than the EHSIEI's L=75mm design for the side panels to hold the printed shaft gooder. |The EHSIEI's version | This Remix: Oval shape based| |---|---| | | | # Model origin The author remixed this model. * [Filament Dry Box using Inomata-K Dry Food Stocker](https://www.printables.com/model/261178) by Kazmar * [Remix Filament Dry Box using Inomata-K Dry Food Stocker](https://www.printables.com/model/330083) by EHSIEI
