Desiccant Container - Prusament Filament Spool

Description

Want to modify a design and don't know how. We can help and often work for free, email us to ask. See the contact detail on our page. For more of my designs check out my website: https://3domcontact.wixsite.com/3dom I wanted to create a container to hold desiccant for my Prusament (filament) when in storage in the as shipped bag and box. There is not much room left, so I decided to use the hole in the spool. Intended for 3-5mm dia desiccant - "Blue Indicating Silica Gel" - https://www.silicagel.com.au/1-kg-blue-silica-gel-beads-self-indicating/ This container is designed to be an easy fit in the spool core hole. There are slots all around to provide air contact. I also designed in a core tube into the container to allow more air contact on to the desiccant, this also serves to hold the thread to secure the lid. With this extra hole (12 mm dia) the container could be mounted with the spool. No photos of the printed one yet, as I am printing a batch set with will take about 20 hours. If you'd like to see a smaller version I have already uploaded that - here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3620171 If you'd like the Fusion 360 file I am happy to share it on request.
