Snowflake Desiccant Packet Holder for Bambu Spools

Update 16/04/2024 - before printing, check out this new model!

Decorate your workspace this season with a functional print! AND give a home to all of those desiccant packets which are no doubt rolling around at the bottom of your filament tub.

• Holds multiple desiccant packs to incraese the drying power
• Prevents the spool from opening up in the AMS due to the fine thread engagement and tight locking - no need for a spool shim!
• Designed to fit a Bambu spool perfectly (even those earlier ones with the 53mm holes) and maximise the available space
• Works well in the AMS without catching on anything - the lips of the holder are almost flush with the sides of the spool
• 2-tone design but no colour changes are required; print the meshes separately and assemble together for faster mass production
• The mesh that goes on the cap is threaded - gently turn it with an Allen key or a ball point pen to get it to the end of the cap
• The mesh that goes in the tube is a simple press-fit

The version without holes on the side and fine mesh could be used to hold loose desiccant but you will need a lot of desiccant to fill it up. I made it because they make neat little storage containers and could be cool gifts. Use it as you wish.

You might be wondering: why are there side holes at all? They're covered when they're in the spool! Well, i had this dryer solution in mind:

Enjoy!
