Description

Ultimate Filament Storage | Cereal Box Storage

⚠️ This model was created to work with the following cereal boxes: Box 1 and Box 2 as those were the only models I found available in Canada 🍁 See picture below for more details.

A Practical Solution for Storing 3D Printing Filaments Using Cereal Boxes

The Ultimate Filament Storage transforms cereal boxes into efficient filament storage containers. It’s compact, practical, and easy to use, perfect for keeping filaments dry and organized.

 

 

Features:

  • Custom-Fit Base: Designed for Box 1 and Box 2, holding filament securely without wobbling.
  • Hygrometer Slot: Space for a rectangular hygrometer or round hygrometer to monitor humidity.
  • Dual Desiccant Holders: Holds up to 2 desiccant boxes for optimal moisture control.
  • Top Desiccant Container: Easy-to-access top compartment for quick desiccant changes.
  • Label Option: Print a customizable label to identify filament type or color.

 

📏 Models comparison:

📓 Changelog:

  • 2024-12-27: Added a small chamfer to desiccant holder for easy bed removal
  • 2025-01-08: Added a new profile that is compatible with round hygrometers. I tried to adapt to different versions of hygrometer that I could see out there.

My new go-to! I've printed different models of this type of design before, and there is always something wrong with them. Ones with bearings when I don't really intend to print out of these. Ones with high compatibility with different size cereal boxes like the ones with the larger indent towards the front, but those often lack large dessicant holders. Or ones that have the entire base be the dessicant container so you have take the whole thing out and akwardly scoop some into them. This one has it ALL the goods and very few of the bads. The base snugly (holds but not tight) fits my SKROAM-variant of the Amazon 4L Cereal boxes when placing the hygrometer side towards the smaller triple indents. The open base makes room for a truely visionary design detail, two /seperate/ dessicant containers with slit holes on all sides. This hold a good amount of dessicant (that I should probably weigh for them sake of this review) that can easily be swapped out with minimal exposureof the filament to the very moist air in my place of the world. This is a much better experience than any other 'dryer base' -variant I've seen. I haven't printed out any nametags, spoolclips or dessicant holders for the topside. I use dessicant holder in the spool center on each. This combined with the dessicant in the base gets my filament to a nice 10% RH @ 20C. Room is 45-70 RH during all parts of the year. RH inside AMS Lite enclosure is 20%. Very happy that someone with the actual skills to design this finally gets it. 10/10, will boost again.

Oh I am sooo pleased to read that. Thank you for the kind words. You described almost exactly my though process on designing those. A base the fits well into the box and does not wiggle around as I move it, a modular system that can be replaced or added and a way to add/remove the hygrometer without breaking it =)

I combined the top desiccant holder from this with modmikes lid and cap https://makerworld.com/en/models/58679#profileId-74305 and incorporated it with this feeding system: https://makerworld.com/en/models/16294#profileId-26865 To make a no drill feeding drybox with tons of desiccant storage. Shame I can't post a remix modmike isn't allowing it either. Here is lots of photos to make your own! Next, I will incorporate a magnetic rewind feature.

Completed two prints of this file and I have to say I am really digging it. Printed all colors in PLA on my Babu Lab A1. I will definitely be printing more out soon. Thank you for your hard work and for allowing us to download and print this file.

Replying to @printelangelo :
3DP noob here (Christmas gift) so please be gentle for my inevitable ignorance. I am now on my 4th print of this beautifully designed model. One question: has anyone done the legwork to share variants that support the say top 20 or so filament vendor spools that do NOT fit in the baseline design? I have 2 1Kg spools from ANYCUBIC and the spools are just a bit too wide to fit the trough. Similarly, my son printed a great little adapter for some .5 Kg spools he has from his ToyBox filament from years ago (still prints decently surprisingly, but we live in the high desert which may be a contributing factcor) which have comparatively thick walls for rigidity. Fits wll in the AMS, not so much for this model. I know the ultimate answer is "download 3D software and git güd", and I intend to, but it would be a public service to provide a library, eh? Perhaps that's my calling, but I wanted don't want to reinvent the wheel if unnecessary. I may also be ignorant of any licensing issues involved here regarding modification and distro, so if that's the case would love being schooled. @printelangelo - thank you for this excellent work!

Hey @Synessence first of all, welcome to the club! From the comments and feedback that I had, this model fits many spools from different brands. I tried to make it generic enough to fit as many spools as possible without compromising the structure of it. The is no remix for such adaptation so far, but you are free to download and create it yourself and publish if needed. The remixes would show up on the top right list (if on desktop). Also the license in which this model is under can be seen on the right section as well. Happy to answer any questions, happy printing!

Would you be able to make the dessicant holder with a solid bottom?

Sure. You mean the box or the round one? And any specific reason?

I have been having a hard time finding a Mini Hygrometer that will go below 20%. Where did you get your hygrometer?

These are BRILLIANT! I've just been printing these non-stop for a week or two now. Fits every filament i've tried to put in them!

These are a great design! I can finally see my filiment colors now. I've been 3D printing for around 10 years, and have always stored my filament in 5 gallon buckets with screw on lid and a Eva-Dry mini dehumidifier droped inside. It worked very good, but I was always guessing which bucket had the color of filament I needed. I now got rid of all my 5-gallon buckets and moved to the cereal containers with this great design for holding and labeling all the different types of filament I have.
