I purchased some rectangular hygrometers that I need a frame for. I wanted to mount it in the flip-up lid of a filament dry box (plastic cereal container), so I came up with this design. It worked great for me, and I hope it will for you.

The hygrometer I purchased from Amazon

The storage containers which will contain the hygrometer was:

Sizes:

  • Rectangular hydrometer size: 44.5 x 25.7 x 13.1
  • Frame opening 47.5 mm x 28.5 mm
  • Plastic lid opening 56.57 mm

Can be printed in whatever filament you want. I used PLA. 

Used PLA with the following print settings:  0.4 nozzle, 0.2 mm layer, 5 top layers, 4 bottom layers, no brim, no supports, and infill 15%.

Both the hygrometer, and it‘s frame  are a friction fit . No glue needed.

Note:  After posting my design today, I come to find out that other people had designed the same thing.  As they say “ great minds think alike”.  Sorry, no I did Not plagiarize  your design.
