A spool container can include a desiccant holder to help keep filaments dry during storage. I prefer using a 0.8 mm nozzle in vase mode to increase wall thickness and improve durability. Additionally, I like to print with transparent PETG, as it allows you to see through the container walls—this makes it easier to identify filament colors quickly. Using a larger nozzle (like 0.8 mm) in vase mode also enhances the transparency of the print. While it's possible to use a 0.4 mm nozzle in vase mode, the results are generally not as effective. When printing with PLA, I recommend using a brim for better bed adhesion. However, for PETG, a brim is usually unnecessary. By the way, you'll need to gently press the container walls inward when placing the lid; otherwise, it won't fit properly. I designed the lid for a precise, airtight fit—so there's no need for an additional gasket to keep air out.
