FlashForge Filament Dry Box

Still a work in progress. Parts list below.

The Dry boxes fit the Creator Pro frame perfectly. I have this dry box sitting on top of an overturned box.

***12/19/2022 Update***

I ditched the tubing bulkhead adapters. The PTFE tubes slides into the FlashForge extruder tubes.

***1/13/2021 Update***

I'm not a fan of the single bar design any more. Changing out one roll can be cumbersome so I'm probably going to switch to a roller bearing, pedestal for the rolls to sit on instead.

** File List: **

Hygrometer Prob Wire Clip.stl

Holds the hygrometer probe wire out of the way of moving parts, clips to the rear carriage of the extruder pulleys.

Hygrometer Probe Clip.stl

Used to hold the probe of the hygrometer inside the printer.

Tubing bulkhead adapter 6MM smooth to 5MM thread.stl

Adapter for the extruder tubes to connect to the exterior push to connect fittings. I recommend sliding the PTFE into these, then screw the PTC fittings onto them.

Rod Holder 1.stl Rod Holder 2.stl

Holds the 3/4" rod. Need two. One allows you to lift up on one end of the rod in order to slide the spools off.

Tube Covers - Body.stl Tube Covers - Clip.stl

PTFE covers and clip for the unused filament storage. The body is closed and allows for about 1" of exposed filament so you can easily pull the filament through the tubing to feet your extruder.

3M VHB 1/2" double sided tape: https://www.amazon.com/STERILITE-32Qt-Clear-Gasket-19334304/dp/B00KL7VQ7S/ref=as_li_ss_tl?dchild=1&keywords=sterilite+32qt+gasket+box&qid=1609335560&sr=8-2&linkCode=sl1&tag=noboysallowed-20&linkId=10a39a4c4bc0d4778d597249c6e8d511&language=en_US

I use 3M VHB exclusively when I need something to permanently stick. It's good to have around. It is expensive, but well worth it over other double sided tapes.

Body Bolt 1/4-20: https://www.amazon.com/STERILITE-32Qt-Clear-Gasket-19334304/dp/B00KL7VQ7S/ref=as_li_ss_tl?dchild=1&keywords=sterilite+32qt+gasket+box&qid=1609335560&sr=8-2&linkCode=sl1&tag=noboysallowed-20&linkId=10a39a4c4bc0d4778d597249c6e8d511&language=en_US

Serrated Lock Nuts 1/4-20: https://www.amazon.com/STERILITE-32Qt-Clear-Gasket-19334304/dp/B00KL7VQ7S/ref=as_li_ss_tl?dchild=1&keywords=sterilite+32qt+gasket+box&qid=1609335560&sr=8-2&linkCode=sl1&tag=noboysallowed-20&linkId=10a39a4c4bc0d4778d597249c6e8d511&language=en_US

These are optional. I had some on hand. They eliminate the need for a washer or nylon lock nut as the serrated lock nuts hold onto the surface and both bolt and lock nut have washers built in.

3/4" rod. I used a railing baluster as I had some left over from a project. They are 26" long so you can get 2 out of one baluster. I'm not sure if you can buy just one so a piece of black pipe may work from the local hardware store. I prefer metal over wood for sagging.
