Description
This is a snap-together shroud/spacer to allow for filament drying in the OSTBA 240W Digital Food Dehydrator: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B085QKT3V4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
There are several other good designs out there for round dehydrators like the Westinghouse models, but I wanted to be able to use a digital model with a timer. I settled on the OSTBA model due to features and reasonable price.
There are two versions; a continuous single shroud for larger printers and a 4-piece snap-together version for small print beds. For the snap together version, print two of each plate (A and B). Both fit 100mm spools. I may develop versions with filament outlets and bearings to allow printing directly from the dryer.
I printed in PETG for the additional flexibility and strength over PLA.
Enjoy!
