Looking for low cost filament spool cases

AlltechM · 2017-02-11T05:25:11.000Z

Hey guys,

I noticed some of my partially used filaments tends to sit exposed for a while. Then become brittle or create bubbles and cause unreliable / inconsistent prints down the line. Does anyone know of a low cost (under $20 + S&H) filament spool case that is compact? (not looking for buckets or modded bins (needs to look kinda nice too). I intend to get a couple for each roll I have.

Thanks ahead.

Hello @AlltechM

I’m currently waiting for the dehumidifiers, building 2 of those : Filament Storage Made Easy – No DIY Needed | 3D Printing for Beginners as the vacuum bags where just unreliable (not staying vacuumed,…).

As you are in the US it should be quite easy to the storage cases and the dehumidifiers.

I’ve been using 2.5 gallon zip lock bags for my filament, with a few packets of desiccant thrown in, and so far so good.
