Description

Having purchased some Chef's Path containers to help store my open filament spools. I opted to add some colour changing silica gel beads into each container to help ensure moisture wasn't going to be a problem. 

However, using the Prusament spools I found the beads would sometimes stick in the hexagonal pattern of the spool. So here's a simple solution, a grid that helps keep the spool away from the beads. Whilst also ensuring the beads are visible, so you know when they need to be re-charged (assuming you have the colour changing silica gel beads)

Designed to be printed on a Prusa Mini, so isn't quite as large as big as I'd want it to be (ideally would fit edge to edge, but that's not possible on the Prusa Mini print bed).

Printing

  • Rotate part on Z axis by 45°
  • Material: I used Prusament Galaxy Black PLA
  • Print Settings (PrusaSlicer): 0.20mm Speed, 15% infill.
  • Supports: None
  • Print Setting→ Skirt and brim→ Loops: 0 (avoid the initial loop which due to size of print can attach to corners of the print)
