2023-12-26: Link to BeadBoss “UnderTray” made by cgpro_. Thanks, @cgpro_ !

- The UnderTray will catch the undersized beads and dust without having to shake-and-sieve over a can or box, and complements BeadBoss very well!
- I was thinking about making one of these for BeadBoss, myself. Now I don't have to. :-)

Purpose
BeadBoss ensures that only larger-sized desiccant beads make it to your Automatic Material System (AMS), preventing the smaller fragments and dust from causing havoc and mucking it up ("mucking" is a technical term).
What is BeadBoss?
BeadBoss is a sieve designed to pre-filter your desiccant, eliminating tiny particles and broken pieces that could escape through container vents and contaminate your AMS.
Why BeadBoss?
Dry filament is crucial for high-quality 3D printing. We have desiccant containers anywhere space is available inside the AMS Dry Box. We have containers that fit between the AMS stage feeders. We have containers in the AMS's silca trays. We have containers built into spool hubs. And we have containers anywhere else we can think of that dries the air inside the AMS! These are highly effective, and many would say essential, bringing the relative humidity down to 10% or less inside the AMS where filament remains for long periods, maintaining exceedingly dry conditions within.
Key Features
- Angled walls to contain beads during sieving
- A funnel exit for easy transfer to desiccant holders
- Simple shake-and-sieve operation to filter out unwanted fragments
Usage
Pour beads into BeadBoss, shake over a receptacle, and watch as only the desirable, large beads remain. The rest? They're caught and discarded, never to bother your AMS.
Use with Confidence
Give your AMS the care it deserves with BeadBoss, and keep your filament dry without the mess or stress.
