What
A really nice 3D printing filament spool holder for the newer style Rubbermaid 21 cup storage container (1776473) which is often used as a drybox.
Basically, this is designed to be very sturdy, allow a maximum variety of spools (max width of 78mm) while being easy to print, smooth rolling and allowing for maximum desiccant. Improvements over v1 include:
No more issues with the screws tightening over time which increases drag
Added additional support brace to keep sides parallel and improve rigidity
Print Instructions
ABS, PLA, PETG, whatever you like really. I used 3 top/bottom layers and 3 shells with 15% infill.
Required
Each spool holder will require:
4x F695 bearings
4x 5mm diameter x 30mm long shafts
Tips
Throw in some desiccant and a humidity sensor to ensure your filament stays dry.
Use a drill or drill press and some sandpaper to get the bearing to fit onto the shaft if it's slightly oversized.
