Where are all the 5kg filament spool dry boxes? Build video: https://youtu.be/h-Q685tzcTM
You may find that there are few options for ballers like yourself. So let's roll up our sleeves and make a super effective DIY dry box for as cheap as possible. Some parts you'll need to print, and some you'll need to buy. Links below. Amazon ones are affiliate links and buying through that helps me produce more content like this--but believe me, I shopped around to find them deals. Let me know if you found this helpful. That's my goal! Thanks.
THINGS TO PRINT
THINGS TO BUY
- 32QT Hefty Container - This is the container, obviously. On Amazon you unfortunately have to order in packs of 6, so I found it at a couple other retailers - Amazon: https://amzn.to/3wpF133 Menards: https://rb.gy/xts2ci Walmart: https://rb.gy/otyqto
- PEFE tube & connector - You may have some of these already sitting around Amazon: https://amzn.to/3QJpnGs
- Silica Beads - This seems to be a phenomenal deal! 2lb that are both color indicating (change from orange to green when they're moist) and rechargeable by trying them in an oven. Amazon: https://amzn.to/4bdQlhV
- Hygrometer - There are a lot of cheap hygrometers out there that are not even close to accurate, but these are well reviewed and seem to be consistent between devices - Amazon: https://amzn.to/4b7B81H
- Neoprene rubber strip - https://amzn.to/44GUZlW (optional)
- 5kg ASA filament spool - This is the one I featured in the video. Not needed for the build, but wanted to include the link in case someone wanted to try it. (NOTE, do not buy this if your machine is not capable of printing with ASA!) Amazon: https://amzn.to/3WMPzDQ
