Rubbermaid 21-Cup Mount for Snapmaker Artisan

This is a mount for Rubbermaid 21-cup containers. These are often used for creating DIY filament dry boxes and there are several designs for them on Thingiverse.

The one I use is a modified version of this one: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4976052 - (I had to use a different base since the base.stl model in the original is broken)

For the Snapmaker I was having trouble using it due to placement of the box. If the filament isn't mounted in a particular way the printer has trouble feeding the filament to the hot-end and usually stops the print. I could only place them on the top of the Artisan and that was causing problems.

That meant I could only use the dry boxes for static storage (i.e. couldn't be used while printing). So, I designed these mounts to mount the containers against the aluminum extrusions on the Snapmaker's frame.

They require M5x10mm screws and nuts for mounting. Here are the ones I use: https://a.co/d/f4K6r6g https://a.co/d/hPKbPI6

I attempted to design these so any hygrometers displays would be visible and feed tubes would be accessible.

Note: The new design has a 15mm spacer block and it seems to work really well, especially if you attach furniture feet pad to prevent scratching the side of the Artisan enclosure.
