Vacuum bags are great for storing filament but they're notoriously fragile and can easily be punctured by sharp edges or wear out due to over-stretching. I've also included versions with a hole in the center to hold those round generic hygrometers. If yours are like mine with little locking wings on the side, just fit through the notches and then twist a bit to hold them in place.
The generic versions are not intended to fit tightly, so should fit most spools.
I've also included versions designed specifically to fit certain brands like the plastic spools from Printed Solid, which are especially problematic due to some sharp corners from the “spokes” that extend into the hub.
If you'd like to extend/remix this, you can access the source CAD here at Onshape.
Printing Tips
- Make sure your first layer is no more than 0.25 or the brand text might not slice properly.
