Updated version with integrated silica tray

 

@ls6_534717 made an awesome Vasemode Silica tray to put in the free space in the middle: 

Silica container for Sistema drybox roller (vase mode)

 

IMPORTANT PRINT SETTING:

Use randomized seam for the Rollers because an aligned seam would create a line where the Filament roll can get stuck on.

I recommend quickly sanding down the little blobs from Random seam, but its not necessary. 

 

Notes:
Last version had concave rollers which turned out to be bad for smooth rolling.
New Version uses non concave/ flat rollers with a little rim to stop the filament from rolling of and a bigger roller diameter. 
Now its rolling super smooth

Small demo:

 

After finding out about the Sistema KLIP IT 5L Box (can be bought on amazon) which is perfectly suited for slightly bigger filament spools i was on the search for some fitting Spoolholders.

I see alot of people use the TUSH Spoolholder inside that box, but i didnt like the idea of having two seperate parts that have to be positioned perfectly before setting the spool on top.

Then i found this model

which inspired me to make my own roller which perfectly fits the Sistema Klip it box.

 

Requirements for the design were:

  • As much of the total width of the Roller as possible should be able to hold the spool to allow even the widest of spools.
  • Account for the curved edged of the box 
  • Print without supports

 

To assemble this you need 4 Skateboard bearings (608 Bearing)
 

Assembly is just  placing all the Stubs/Dowles in the Rollers, adding the Bearing spacer, and then the bearing on top.

Depending on how good your Flow is tuned it could be a little hard putting the stubs into the rollers.

 

STEP Included if you'd like to make some changes :)

 

I recommend 0.3mm Layerheight for faster printing, but not special settings have to be made.

I use these glue on feet for the box
And this for Filament passthrough
