Silica Gel Dry Box (stackable) - for Sovol SH02 Filament Dryer

>> Use case

These boxes are to be used in stack in the filament dryer box Sovol SH02. They are to archieve regenerated silica gel in this dryer. So you can prevent being forced to use your kitchen gadgets, e. g. microwave or oven, where you actually want to make food without any bad thoughts of small plastic particals remaining in there!

You can choose two version, explained in the following, and two heights (30mm or 50mm). Look for the options at the model description!

>> Version 1 - slited walls

Here there are slited sides additionally to the slited ground. It is better for airing, whereas it takes much longer printing in comparison.

>> Version 2 - scaffolding walls (ref. to 3D_Workspace) 

Here just the ground is slited, the walls are in scaffolding, one-line-only design, see the images for better understanding. This way, you can reach much faster printing times and the walls are still as stable as needed. However, for more reliability think about using filaments, that has good properties for briding, bed adhesion and that does not tend to roughen.

>> Printing advices

For my design, it is recommandable to use support enforcers for some areas. Those 6 areas are marked in blue with yellow arrows groups in the image below. The easiest way to archieve the proper supporting is to use the marking feature in PrusaSlicer, check “Smart fill” an click for the corresponding areas. Then check the option “For support enforcers only”, so that there are no unwanted supports somewhere else.

Used filament should be more temperature resistant than PETG in case you plan to use the full 70 °C/ 158 °F. This didn't work reliably for me.

Happy printing!

Makes are welcome! :D
