Description

PDF

A filamentcase optimized to stand on its own and waste as little space as possible. The lid has a groove for a tpu sealingring to protect from moisture, and a hole has been added in the lid to allow for a humidity sensor to be installed. (There is also a dummy cover if you don't have the sensor yet).

The TPU sealing ring is not a printable item. You can use raw tpu filament and secure it through the hole in groove. See example in the picture gallery.

Also included is a wall mount. The holes in the wallmount are 48 mm apart and matches pegboards that have 12mm space between the holes.

 The Onshape cad model is available here if you would like to make your own modifications.


Works very well with the dessicant box by “gdrag”. The boxes have held a very stable humidity under 20% for over a month in a room at 50% humidty when using the dessicant box. The seal is not perfect, so the dessicant needs to be replaced after a couple of months.

Update: Based on research from @MakerCameron the filament case is now updated to 80mm which is 5 millimeters more. This will make it fit more brands of spools.
