<p>This is an extension piece for the <strong>square </strong>shaped <a href="https://smile.amazon.com/Sunix-Dehydrator-Dehydrators-Adjustable-Temperature/dp/B097BYJ81N">Sunix Food dehydrator</a>.</p><p>This print is in eight pieces, designed to be printed on a Prusa Mini:</p><ul><li>two small corners</li><li>two large corners</li><li>two small spacers</li><li>two large spacers</li></ul><p><strong>Notes</strong></p><p>I'm sure print could be re-mixed to be printed with fewer pieces. I designed this quickly using corner pieces designed to be too small so I could print the expansion pieces without re-printing the corner pieces.</p><p><strong>Printing Directions</strong></p><p>I recommend printing this in PETG since this will be subjected to heat. I printed the corner pieces with brims, since they are thin and tall. Removing the brim was a pain- I used a key to clean out the channel.</p><p><strong>Assembly</strong></p><ol><li>Print the pieces.</li><li>Remove the trays that came with the dehydrator.</li><li>Put the small corner pieces in opposite corners.</li><li>Put the large corners pieces in the remaining corners.</li><li>Slide the large spacers into the large gaps.</li><li>Slide the small spacers into the small gaps.</li><li>Place half of an old spool holder in the bottom to lift filament away from the heat vent at bottom. (This is most likely optional - but I do it to be cautious.)</li></ol><p><strong>Usage</strong></p><ol><li>Install the walls.</li><li>Place spool to dehydrate inside.</li><li>Place the lid on top.</li><li>Turn on and select temperature and wait. I use:&nbsp;<ul><li><strong>50°C</strong> for <strong>PLA </strong>for <strong>4 hours</strong></li><li><strong>65°C</strong> for <strong>PETG </strong>for <strong>4 hours</strong></li></ul></li></ol>
