To store 3D filament in a plastic bag with some dessicant bags is a routine. But impossible to know if the dessicant is full of water or not, because it's a bag. In addition the location of the bags is random. The idea was to create a box:
you can install in the hole of the spool,
you can easily fill and check with a threaded cover,
a little bit longer than the thickness of the spool tolet humidity go in the box
with holes in sufficient quantity and of 2.5mm to comply with the bead size (about 3-4mm)
Some sketches in Fusion and after 3 trials, the result seems acceptable.
There are three pieces:
the body with some slots on the top and bottom, and a thread on one side
the bottom which has to be glued on the body
the cover which is removable and assembled to the body with a thread.
Made in PLA+. Supports are necessary for the body with top face on the printing plate.
Hope this can be useful. Let me know if you need the Fusion file.
