Description

Parts to construct a drybox with the "form" series of boxes, purchasable at B&Q in the UK. This uses a Medium sized XAGO form box and lid. The shaft is a repurposed 20mm piece of tube from an old mop handle.

Inspired by Thomas Sanladerer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY5n9q-wS7k

Humidity results are here: http://designingoverload.com/2020/09/16/dry-box-for-sensitive-filament/

You'll need:

  • 1x box + lid, with the blue lid clips broken off.
  • 1x 20mm shaft, cut to length
  • 2x hose attachments and appropriate nuts for the other side (mine were M5)
  • 1x humidity monitor (optional)
  • 1x coil of 5mm foam window seal [bought at B&Q].
  • Plenty of silica gel beads to fill the bottom. I used around a kilo, and got the kind that start orange and turn green when wet [from ebay].

Printing:

  • 2x Shaft holder. (scad file included if your shaft is a different dia)
  • 4x box clips
  • 1x humidity monitor mount

Tools:

  • hot glue gun
  • 5mm drill bit and something to drill with [I used a hand drill for precision]
