Filament Storage/Drybox ("OBI Allzweckbox")

This is my easy built version to store my filaments while keeping them dry. It can hold 6 1 kg spools at least. The used hardware comes from the german "OBI" stores and some onlineshops for the humidity sensor and silica gel (I am using 2 kg of that with indicator). The assembly needs no screws!

As a total cost to build I would estimate roughly 50-60 €.

Parts to print

Print four front and back brackets and one humidity sensor bracket (optional).

Buyparts list

• OBI Allzweckbox Cadiz XL mit 4 Rollen Transparent (container)

• OBI Deckel für Allzweckbox Cadiz M - L - XL - XXL Transparent (container lid)

• Holzzargendichtung Weiß 5 m (OBI, you do not need the full 5 meters) (door frame rubber gasket)

• wooden broomstick (OBI, I use two sticks of 31 cm length and 22 mm diameter, length depends on the height where you mount the brackets since the box is tapered)

• temperature and humidity sensor (optional, I used these: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/gp/product/B07HNSFC3R)

• Silica gel with indicator (I used 2 kg, maybe less would work fine aswell)

Instructions

Glue the rubber lip to the rim of the box with hotglue. Therefore i cut off the t-shaped think which would normally be slid into the doorframe (your model may vary).

Mount the brackets by drilling the nescessary holes (wooden drill bits worked well for me) and sealing the perimeters of the brackets with some more hotglue.

Mount your hygrometer on the lid with small dots of hotglue.

Fill in the silica gel.

Insert your cut broomsticks with spools loaded onto them.

Done!
