Filament Dry Box (Asda/Tesco)

I was looking for a cheap way to make a filament dry box and i came up with this thing, not the best but it works (i think at least), bought this box from Tesco's (UK) but you can also find it at ASDA or B&Q.

I used Wham Crystal 37L Stackable Plastic Storage Box & Lid Clear, its 440mm in length, 340mm wide and 250mm deep all inside measurements.

Here's the link for the B&Q one, they are the same: https://www.diy.com/departments/5-x-wham-crystal-37l-stackable-plastic-storage-box-lid-clear/5038135254253_BQ.prd

I decided to print the "pipe", but you can just print the supports and use a 40mm pipe thats 440mm long.

It can be printed out of PLA but I recommend using PETG as its a lot stronger.

You'll have to glue the pipes together as I've split it in 2 so i can print it.

You can store up to 8 1kg filament spools, 6 on the support and 2 in front of them.

As for silica gel i used this on from amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07QRRHJV3?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

As for hardware you'll need 8x 3mmx20mm screws with washers and nuts to secure the brackets from the box
