Description

Description:

These boxes are specialy designed to be printed really fast and also to have as much holes as possible to let the wet air reach the silica-gel inside.

The screw cap is an easy and durable way to close the box and also open it again to dry the silica-gel. It should also be easy to print and if not please read the print instructions below.

 

Important: Bambu slicer:

Enable the "detect thin walls" setting. You can find this in the settings for strength under walls.

The default wall thickness in Bambu slicer is 0.42mm but the walls of the box are just like the Nozzle only 0.4mm thick. Without this setting your are not able to slice the middle part at all.

 

Versions:

Container_50mm

The boxes with a diameter of 50mm fit perfectly in the inside of most Filament spools. (for example: prusament, polymaker, SUNLU, Geeetech, zmorph, extrudr, 3DJake, …)

 

Container_75mm

This box is much bigger but also really flat. It is made for big storage boxes and contains up to 200g of Silica gel beads.

 

Container_100mm

This box is even larger, will contains much more silica gel beads.

 

 

NOTE:

I recommend to only use Silica gel beads with at least 2mm of diameter.
This should keep also most broken beads inside the box.

 

Print instructions:

You should print all the parts with a maximum layer hight of 0.2mm to make sure the screw works just fine. In case you have any print issues thry to turn off retraction or set the position of the z-seam to random.


Thanks for downloading and happy printing!

Easy print and easy assembly with Bambu PLA matte. This required no change in print-settings. Referenced to the assembly... ok there is just a lid to screw on, but it fits perfectly! I had some issues with threads last week (on another model) and would have been happy to have them like these. Overall a a nice profil which you can print without thinking ;-) Thank you for your work!

Sadly it turned out, that I'm obsessed by this little box! :-D No I'm kidding, but I got 2kg of silica a few days ago and I truly decided to print a 50mm-box for every spool in my cabinet. Will take some time! Currently I'm printing the second plate with 8 boxes with lid ^^ Btw. a new order for 5kg of silica is out :-D The delivery-date fits perfectly to the print-time ^^ EDIT: For your compatibility list of filament spools: eSun, Eryone and CR3D (a german filament maker) and all my bambu-spools are working too! I also tested this model from Makerworld which fits perfectly: Bambu Lab Reusable Spool / Masterspool https://makerworld.com/en/models/36669#profileId-34765 Tomorrow I planed to print a 500%-size-box. I think this will help the cabinet to stay dry ^^ But maybe I'm just went crazy... don't know :-D

Printed a whole mess of these to put in my PrintDry boxes. The hydrometer strips went from meh to excellent over night! Printed in PETG so I can toss them into my Sunlu filament dryer when they need a recharge! Only broke two taking them off the plate, but that was my fault...

These are great. I made four for the AMS. I'm planning on making more. I like how they nestle in there and rotate with the spool nicely. I made a little funnel from your screw cap which works great. Thank you.
