UPDATE V2

I found the original version made the whole thing sit too wide. This would often get caught on the internal ‘fins’ of the original Bambu Lab AMS unit (Hydra likely ok) and would catch. Meaning it would sometimes not roll properly within the AMS. 

V2 is a recessed version and I have futher reduced the internal tolorance within the filament spool to fit more snug. V2, however, does not have text as the ‘waves’ get in the way. V2 sits with incredibly tight toloerance to the original dessicant holder and snaps in without too much force. Overall, V2 is a much cleaner solution. 

Printing:

  • Supports will be required in v2
  • Print large side down if using support interface material or small side down if not using support interface material. 
  • 0.4mm nozzle
  • 0.2mm layer height or less
  • 15% infill or more
  • 3 walls
  • Honestly, any settings probably work. It's not a hard print.

Sunlu adapter for the "Adjustable Spool Holder for Silica Gel / Spool Weight" with different coloured text. 

The Sunlu filament spools I use have an internal size of 72mm (or there abouts). This has been designed to fit in nicely with minimal tolorance to avoid it rattling around. Same for the internal hole of the print that contacts the dessicant holder itself. 

As a result it all slots in nicely without being tight.

The text is flush and is a different model so you can easily change filament colour (no painting) and print face down for a cripst finish. It's only 0.2mm high so only prints on the first layer to avoid multiple colour changes. 

I've included a .3mf file which is all setup so you can just hit print. Obviously, you'll need to change the filament to the correct AMS slot for the text and main print. The 3mf will print all pieces for 1 dessicant unit. 

Enjoy!
