Rubbermaid Drybox Spoolholder

thingiverse

EDIT NOTE: The initial five files will suffice for a starting point; the rest can remain as older design archives (hopefully sorted correctly).\r\n\r\nSeveral drybox designs caught my attention, but I was not satisfied with them, so I designed this one from scratch, re-designed it multiple times, and continue to refine it.\r\n\r\nAlthough still not entirely happy with its current state, I aim to improve it further or inspire others to enhance their own designs.\r\n\r\nThis design utilizes a Rubbermaid 21-cup dry storage box, available on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Rubbermaid-1776473-21-Cup-Food-Container/dp/B003EYUZJU/\r\n\r\nConsider visiting your local Walmart or other chain store; they may offer more competitive pricing.\r\n\r\nThe axle employs standard Fidget Spinner bearings, which most users should have in abundance. Bolts and nuts are M5.\r\n\r\nSpool adapters require a M3x10 socket cap screw and three nuts: one is press-fitted into its respective part, while the other two serve as jam nuts to prevent the screw from becoming lost.\r\n\r\nThe current image showcases the new Inland spool without adapters; these will be added once suitable designs are created.\r\n\r\nOn 12-9-2018, I updated a couple of parts, and they should be self-explanatory.\r\n\r\nSpoked axles need to be printed in a sideways orientation with the nut pocket facing upwards. Adapters can typically be printed with touching buildplate supports.\r\n\r\nMy advice is to print Tianse adapters if you're not using them; compare your spool to these adapters and design matching parts accordingly.
