About

This is a set of front mounted Silica Gel Boxes for the Python AMS to keep the moisture in the enclosure at a minimum. They slide into the front dovetails of Python.

A “normal” Python setup with four spools use three Silica Gel Boxes.

Notice: It is not compatible with a stock AMS setup.

Print settings

All parts print without supports and it uses a sliding lid. The funnel is optional but makes loading much easier.

BOM - Bill of materials

Silica gel beads. I recommend these that change colour so you know when to reactivate/dry them:

• 500 g Silica Gel Beads

For the Hygrometer box (coming soon) you also need a small round hygrometer (mini) with a 41 mm diameter which you can pick up from AliExpress for example. I bought a bunch since they're so cheap:

• Mini Digital LCD Thermometer Hygrometer (Round)
• Mini Digital LCD Thermometer Hygrometer (Rectangular)

You also need an M3 hex bolt (socket head), anything from 6-10 mm should work. If you don't have any at home it's best to grab the kit below, it will have everything you need for this build and many more.

• 1100 pcs M3 Hex Socket Head Cap Kit

Optional

I highly recommend these Nano Coated Helical Extruder Gears from FYSETC, I use them for all my Bambu printers, they're inexpensive and offer a number of improvements of the stock gears:

• Extruder Gear for Bambu X1/P1P/P1S CNC Nano Coating

The hex tools are optional and you can of course use any hex tool but I like these and have used them for years for my printers:
