This design belongs to this dry box concept (https://goo.gl/Lesu5Q) which allows keeps your filament dry serves as a spool holder at the same time. This design allows you to replace the pneumatic connectors.
Some users reported, that those connectors might shave some. Depending of the filling level of the drum this happened to me more and more often.

This design has solved the problem for me and also saves money.

My PTFE tubes to vary in diameter quite a bit. So you may have to scale the modle according to your needs or glue the PTFE tube in. Because I've added the Fusion 360 files, you can change the dimensions there, too.

I can't upload Fusion 360 files here but you can get them from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3035322
