Filament dry box with filter
Description
**The Backstory:** So I Got A Hold Of Some Nylon Filament, And It Printed Surprisingly Well On My Ultimaker2+. Happily I Forgot To Store The Spool Properly, And After A Day Of Damp Weather The Nylon Had Absorbed So Much Moisture, That Printing Was Reduced To A Lot Of Fizzing And Almost No Layer Adhesion. Crap. As Any Maker Knows: When There'S A Problem, Cad'Ll Solve It. I Gathered A Few Things I Had Lying Around And Drew Up A Few Parts In Fusion360. It Took A Couple Of Iterations To Get Things Right, And There'S Still A Few Minor Tweaks That Could Be Made, But For My Setup It'S Pretty Much What I Need And I'M Loving The Setup So Far And Thought I'D Share It With The Community. Tl:Dr; Moisture Gets Into Your Filaments And Degrades Print Quality And Absolutely Ruins Your Day. This'Ll Help You Fix That. **Bill Of Materials:** * Carbon Rod 8Mm Diameter * Bowden Tube That Fits Your Filament Size * 4 Couplings, That Fit The Bowden Tube * Some Hotglue Or M3 Screws To Secure The Brackets Holding The Rods * A Sponge For The Filter * A Airtight Container, That'Ll Fit Your Spool Size. I Had One That Wasn'T Airtight, But Made It Airtight By Adding Sealing Strip. Again I Hope Some Will Find This Useful, Give Me A Like If You Like It And Post A Picture Of Your Make, Should You Decide To Make One Show It Off!
