# Desiccant Box
This desiccant box is intended to be used with the [Dry Box Filament Dispenser][1]. However, it can be used for other purposes as well.
It is composed of two printed parts:
- Container 170x170x32 mm (with printed 4 threads for M6 with 1.0 mm pitch screws)
- Lid 166x166x2 mm (sunken in the container)
4 screws of M6x20 with 1.0 mm pitch are needed to secure the lid. I used Nylon screws to make it Microwave friendly, just in case I will recycle the Silica Gel Beads in a Microwave while still in the box with the lid secured with the screws. However, if this is not your case, then you may use other materials for the screws.
The box has vents on the top and bottom faces. The intention is to place this desiccant box turned over with its lid facing the bottom. This way the heads of the 4 screws of this desiccant box serve as feet elevating the box in order not to block the bottom vents.
If placed as suggested, the top part has a 40 mm diameter central poc
