Assembly Notes
- Most mounts have an inner and outer component for scews to screw into
- Position the spool inside your chosen container and mark where the spool rod mounts should be
- Once spool rod mounts are installed and parallel, cut the rod to width and slip both spool roller over top - this design does not use bearings, as there should be minimal friction between metal and plastic
- Drill hole size of outer diameter of bowden tube and install sharkbite mount
- Hygrometer can be installed in flip lid section once lid has been sealed with silicon/glue
- Fill box with gel beads and attatch lid and drop inside
