Description
I liked Quabit and Croho's version of this so I remixed a version without a hygrometer on top because I didn't want to buy one.
Eventually everyone that 3d prints comes to the conclusion that their filament gets wet. After using a cardboard box, here is a simple solution to use the bed of your a1 or similar larger bed printer. Will work fine in the enclosed models as well, keeping the heat focused around the spool and drying it. Croho's base adds more airflow to Quabit's simple design. Letting cooler air in the bottom and venting hot humid air out the top.
You will need to print in PETG to withstand the temperatures to effectively dry PLA filament, and something like ABS to dry PETG and so forth.
I'm including a version of the top done in vase mode. Result is super thin and flexible, but only takes a third of the filament and time. Still testing how well it holds heat compared to the full version.
