Description

This design was inspired by another circular drier that I re-engineered in Fusion 360 to address several issues. The drier is designed to be used in a filament drier sucha s a Sunlu S2 but can also be used with ther heat sources such as microwave or print bed.

  • The original model screwed at the centre, allowing the edges to flex and leak desiccant. I added threads to the outside cover edge for a secure seal
  • Added inner lip to the cover to secure the inside perimeter
  • Created a fill and drain port
  • Created a funnel and spout that can be screwed into the port for hands and mess free transfers
  • Increased the number of openings to save filament and improve air flow

Printing tips:

  1. Use ABS for heat resistance, PETG ones can, and have, melted
  2. Heat soak your printer with bed set to 100 degrees for at least an hour if printing on a Bambu X1CC
  3. Use a .28 layer height for the main body and expect a 10 hour print on a Bambu X1CC in regular mode
  4. All other parts need to be printed at 2.0 for threads to work.
  5. It may be tough to screw the top cover in so just push it in and it will ‘clip’ in. Then you ran rotate the cover to tighten
