Snap-In Silica Gel Container for Prusament Spool (with Hygrometer)

November 2, 2023
Description
Yet another silica gel container …
What makes this design better than many existing ones:
- snaps into Prusameter spools,
- easy removable,
- hygrometer is separated from the silica gel for better accuracy,
- easy and quick to print without a lot of travel movements and stringing.
How to print:
This container is designed for a line width of 0.4mm and a layer height of 0.2mm. The lid must be printed from a flexible filament - PETG works well. PLA is not suitable as the small snaps will break. Print in the specified orientation. No support required.
How to assemble:
The 2 snappers of the hygrometer must snap into the 2 ventilation windows of the lid, see picture above and video below.
Requires one of those cheap hygrometers you find on Amazon or Aliexpress, for example here.
