Spoolholder for Daiso Kimchi con 16L & Skylock 4L

(This translation was translated from Korean to English using Google Translate. If there are any strange letters, it is a translation problem.)

Overview

I wanted a looser spool holder, but I couldn't find what I wanted, so I ended up making it myself.

This spool holder is only for storage purposes. If you want to use the filament storage box as a filament supply box, look for another holder.

Since the Daiso kimchi container is opaque, there is no function to attach a hygrometer, and since the Skylock is a transparent box, I added a place to attach a hygrometer, but this part seems to have room for improvement. When I tested it, I confirmed that the hygrometer fits.

Features
 * A spool holder that may be cute in the shape of (self-proclaimed) fox ears.
 * Put any kind of silica gel in the box. Then, place the holder on top and place the spool.
 * No assembly required. Just print and place.
 * The finger holes make it easy to take out and put in.
 * It's simple, but sturdy enough to hold the spool comfortably.
 * Designed for the Daiso kimchi container 16L and Skylock 4L. (You can use any box as long as the conditions are right.)
 * After finishing printing, stand in front of a mirror, put the spool holder on your head, and enjoy the 'fatal' charm for a while.

Space required
(Assuming a filament spool of 200mm in diameter)

Daiso 16L(4.24 gallon) kimchi container
200x70x230mm

The terminal version is an arc with a radius of 20mm.

Skylock 4L(1.06 gallon) container
200x80x230mm
The corners are an arc with a radius of 15mm.

 * Things to note when using other containers

Since both barrels do not have a common bend for a handle, they may not be usable if there is a narrow section in the barrel that forms a handle. It is recommended to measure before printing.

Plate Description
 * Fox_ears_spool_holder_mid
 * Fox_ears_spool_holder_end
Each is the end and middle of one spool. Use this for individual printing.

 * Daiso 16L kimchi container
If you place two mids and two ends, this plate will be enough for one kimchi container.

 * Skylock 4L container
This is a holder for Skylock containers.
 

How to use
Daiso 16L kimchi container
1. What you need
Daiso kimchi 16L container
Silica gel or Super Dry series desiccant (powder type must be used in a bag.)
2 Fox-ear spool holders mid version
2 Fox-ear spool holders end version
Optional: 1 to 4 spools to store
 

2. Put silica gel in the kimchi container. About 500g should be enough.
 

3. Shake the kimchi container slightly to flatten the silica gel.

Extra: If you use bag-type silica gel or Super Dry, you need to align the bag in the middle so that the holder can be covered stably later. There is about 25mm of height space inside.
 

4. Arrange the Fox-ear spool holders in the order of end - mid - mid - end. Use the finger holes for easy work.
 

5. Once the arrangement is complete, place the spool on top. Even if it is stuck in the gap, the can itself fits perfectly into 4, so it will find its place when filled.
 

6. Close the lid and store the can in a dark, dry location.

Skylock 4L container
1. What you need

Skylock 4L container
Silica gel or Super Dry series desiccant
1 Fox-ear spool holder Skylock version
Pliers (tool to remove the support)
Safety gloves
Optional: Hygrometer
Optional: 1 spool to store

2. Wear safety gloves and remove the Fox-ear spool holder from the printer. Then, use the tool to remove the support.
 

3. Put the silica gel into the Skylock container. Since the bead-shaped silica gel bounces high, it is recommended to put the container and bag down and put it in slowly.
 

4. Gently shake or tap the container to flatten the silica gel inside. When using a bag-type desiccant, place it in a location where it does not interfere with the ends. (160x80x25mm space based on the bottom center)
 

5. Insert the hygrometer into the fox-ear holder Skylock version. Insert the bottom first and push the top. I have a square Xiaomi hygrometer, which is 45x45x14mm in size, so it fits exactly, but the smaller version is loose. In this case, you can fit it by placing a slightly thicker paper under the hygrometer. You should be able to fill it up about 2mm more.
 

5. Insert the holder into the container. Use the finger hole to work comfortably.
 

6. Place the spool on it. There is a guide to help you place it in the center, so the position is somewhat corrected.
 

7. Close the lid and store it in a place where sunlight does not reach as much as possible.

Extra: If the bottom silica gel is too high and the top lid does not close, reduce the silica gel or press the holder by slightly twisting it left and right so that the holder legs are buried in the silica gel.
