Description

Spool Desiccant Holder for the BambuLab Reusable Spools. Designed from scratch to fill my own needs.

 

No need to make extra silica/desiccant prints in the AMS with this holder. The core stays in your filament roll and can be used to store it in a closed storage container.

There is a separate “cap” to hold the silica beads, the larger nut is for clamping it inside the spool. Those two lids can operate without interfering each other.

  • Fits also in other filament spools with a minimum internal diameter of 55mm and a width.
  • Holder can be used in the AMS, and gives some more weight to an almost empty spool! You can also add AAA batteries in the chamber for extra weight.
  • Can easily be printed without support.
  • Internal chamber for better surface area to absorb even more moisture.

TIP: if you don't fill the entire chamber with silica beads, they will tumble around during printing, this will ensure every ball has the chance to absorb more moisture.

 

You can also put the holder in the storage bin without the larger nut. The extra openings on the side will create some more surface area for the silica beads.

 

If a shorter or other diameter version is needed for other spools, please send me a message and I will change the design and upload it.

these are perfect if you want to leave them on the spool to refill.

Exceptional and perfectly fitting silica holders for Bambu Lab spools Well-conceived design where the clamping nut and silica lid do not interfere with each other Printing was superb I lightly treated the lid thread with PTFE spray for smoother operation

I printed eight of these with PETG. Only minor stringing.
