Drybox - Printable on A1 Mini - wallmounted

I designed this drybox because I couldn’t find any models out there that fit my needs. I wanted a compact, wall-mounted solution that would keep my filament dry while printing, and it had to be printable on the A1 Mini. After a bit of trial and error, this is the result!

The hydrometer is not required. If you want to print it without it, simply remove the modifier!
 

Key Features:

• Perfect for Small Printers: Designed to be printable on the A1 Mini, but you can slice it differently if you have a larger print bed. Simply download the STL for doing so!
• Customizable Fit: Easily adjust the modifier to accommodate different moisture meters.
• Space-Saving Design: Mounts on the wall to save space and keep your workspace tidy.
• Requires Some Post-Processing: A bit of finishing and gluing is needed, but once it's done, you'll have a reliable drybox to keep your filament moisture-free.

Download the STL for the full model, or tweak it to suit your setup. I hope it helps you as much as it’s helped me!

You do not want to hang it on the wall?
Simply use screws and nuts to attach the holder to the box and use a cylindrical modifier to place a hole for the filament wherever you need it. Give it a diameter of 4mm - then a PTFE Tube should fit nicely. You can also close the other hole with the “add part” feature. Or just put some hot glue over it… :D

Tipps for assembly:
I use a soldering iron (cheap one from Amazon - I used 180 - 220 degrees) with a flat bit to melt the parts together. The dovetails make it easy to hold them together while working on it. I clicked the parts together and then fused them from both sides. The result felt really sturdy. Alternatively glue/hotglue might work of course. The decoration on the lid is not necessary - but if you glue it on top, it hides the dovetails nicely.

I would advice to glue a small PTFE Tube in the hole on the bottom for the filament. So far you can print very nicely out of it :)
