Print in PETG using standard PETG printing parameters or some other tough plastic like ASA.  I used Inland PETG and printed with Prusa's generic PETG parameters.  Part is thin, so infill 15% will be fine.  PLA will work fine too, but additional bed adhesion will be needed for the tall roller cylinders.

Universal roller designed to fit Plastic House Cereal Containers for a dry-box and spool storage solution.  Used MMU2S roller bearings from the spool holders provided.  Adding a Bowden tube connector to the dry box is the next step to keeping the filament completely dry.  Dehumidifier desiccant pellet boxes are optional if using as simple storage.

Part List:

  • 2x Side-Frames (Part 1)
  • 2x Rollers (Part 2)
  • 1x X-Frame (Part 3)
  • 4x 608 2Z Bearings (purchase separately, or use MMU2S roller bearings)

 

Superglue the X-frame pegs into the designated holes on the side-frames.  Bearings simply fit into the ends of the cylinder and over the pegs of the side-frames.  Assembly can be tricky, so test fit before gluing.

 

REMIX POTENTIAL:  I would like to stiffen up the side-frames, add better press-fit features to hold the bearings without slipping out, and improve the overall aesthetics of the side-frames
