Basic dry filament storage

This is a very, very basic dry filament storage solution. It's nothing fancy. I dd not add Bowden tubes to feed the filament to my machines, and I did not use rods to hold the filament up because I wanted a "grab & go" solution. All you absolutely need is an airtight container & some reusable dessicant tins. The other bits here are just because I'm a little bit of an overengineer sometimes.

I used the Iris 62 quart weathertight storage box available on Amazon (link below). I did so because it had the greatest storage capacity for the average dimensions of standard 1kg filament spools. I can get 2 rows of 8 rolls each into a box, total 16 per box. Lots of boxes were too narrow for 2 rows of filament. I did not want filament spools stacked on top of one another- I wanted easy access. (With 500g/750g rolls, you can obviously get more than 16 rolls in a bin, depending on the width of the rolls)

I also put 2 40-gram silica gel dessicant packs into each box. Also available on
