I wanted a thinner drybox to store filament in when not being used and didn't need holes or rollers for the bearing.

Much simpler build AND Uses about 70% of the filament as the original drybox!!!

Update 3/10/23 - I got tired of fighting with supports for the little latch alignment knob on the bottom half so I cut off a bit of it so now SUPPORTS ARE NO LONGER NEEDED!!! WOOT WOOT!!! also I uploaded a couple test files.

Update 3/5/23 - I had endless problems with extrusion issues on the rims of the bottom sections. also, the latch never aligned properly. I tried numerous settings and never got it completely fixed until i went back to basics. I scrapped everything and downloaded the original files from the original Prusa drybox.

What I did:

1. Sliced them up, squeezed the edges together until they were 80mm apart (the width of the swatch card holder).
2. Added a couple little bits under some ledges to remove the need for supports.
3. Cut out the saddles for the bearings. Use This if you want the spool to spin.
4. Also, covered up the slot for the filament. I would just drill a hole to screw in a bowden tube attachment if desired.

NOW it truly seals! the humidity inside drops down to 10% compared to 20-30% in my previous design!!! I just throw in a handful of silica packets.

I'd love your feedback!

Hardware needed:

• 2x M3x30 screw - for the hinge
• 1x M3x8 screw - to attach the latch to the bottom
• 1x M3x6 screw - for the latch to latch onto
• Humidity sensor
• silica desiccant
