That's quite the bench you have there, Dr. Joe!
Well, thank you for your comment. That is a Rubo bench designed in the 17th century by the French craftsman. It’s made out of solid maple very heavy. Thanks for noticing. Consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe.
@@JosephHunstad Did you build that yourself? I'm building a Moravian-style bench.
@@farmcat3198 yes I built it myself. It was quite a project. I’m very proud of it.
I bought his the other day and finished printing the parts on my mk4.
I like the idea and the stl files come with a number of options. Like there is one with no holes for ptfe tube so it more a storage box or you can get one where the ptfe tube goes direct into the house rather the the coupling.
I’m not keen on the rollers. Why?
Well the printed bearing cover just keeps falling off the actual bearing (you can see it in the video)
Also if you print the brackets with the rollers you can only fit 5 rolls in and not 6.
But as I said it’s a great idea. Gonna buy another one soon as I have room on my window for 2 of these.
The only hard part is choosing if you want to buy the classic (which I did and is shown in this video) or the slim editions.
It’s also a shame the heat press is ‘currently not available’ in the uk. So I had to buy a kit to make it off AliExpress. But the ironic bit is you need to insert the brass inserts to built it
Thank you for your comment. You make a lot of good points. I ended up gluing the bearings onto the brackets and that made a big difference then obviously they don’t fall off. I could actually put seven rolls of filament in this box pushing the brackets all the way to each end and then filling in between. Consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe.
I built something similar, but did it with an electronics dry cabinet. The built in dehumidifier keeps it at 20% RH at all times. It holds 6 rolls and has storage for 3 more. I print directly from the box to 2 different printers.
That sounds fantastic. I would love to see your build. Could you send me some pictures please thanks, Joe.
@@JosephHunstad I can send you a link to a video or send pictures. I'm not sure how to get your email address. I don't think posting it on the comments is a good idea unless you want it known to everyone
@@bluerider0988 I would appreciate being able to see what you've done if possible, please. I'm about to start building something similar, using a dehumidifier as well. Might be useful to see ideas from someone who has already done it. :)
Hello DR. JOE, I wanted to thank you and congratulate you for this superb creation of this drybox which I printed without any problem because your stl are so clean without any fault, however I would like to ask you if there was a version of the stl ( beam A1 and A2 PC4 M10) 5 pc4m10 instead of the 6 that you propose because I opted for the version (5 Spool auto rewinder adapter for (un)original Prusa drybox MMU3 / MMU2S Repbox) thanking you very much if you respond, cdt
I don’t have a five spool version unfortunately. Thank you. Joe.
New to the channel, love the Prusa XL content! Looks like the drybox is setup to feed directly into the printer but I don't see you using it setup that way in any of your newer videos. Is there a particular reason?
Thank you for asking. A really great question. So when I first got the printer, I printed the dry box, because friends of mine, who are printers, use that type of dry box for their filament. It requires using a desiccant, which is a material that absorbs the water, and that needs to be recharged by being heated. I purchased an electric dry box that has a blower and a heater in it that actually can bring the humidity down to one percent which is incredible dry filament is almost problem, free filament versus wet filament, which can cause all sorts of issues, fuzzy printing, lack of adherence to the print bed, etc. so I do use my dry box that I made basically for filament storage but when I’m getting ready to run it into the printer, I use the electric heated dry box which works great. I am upgrading from a one to a five head version of the XL and I’m using actually three of these heated boxes because each one can contain two reels of, 1 kg each or one of 2 kg filament so that covers the five printhead. Consider subscribing. Thanks, Joe.
Hi Joe, How has this worked out in regards to keeping moisture out? What are the humidity levels your seeing? It seems like a good design except for the front door, it does not seem like a good seal to keep moisture out? I downloaded the STEP for this model and am considering making a better seal at the front but wanted to see what you and others have to say about that? What are your thoughts? BTW: Got my printer 5T, printed all the enclosure parts, and am assembling it now, love the printer!
Thank you for your comments. Yes I love the printer. It’s great. I don’t think the box keeps out moisture as well as you might think. I’ve actually converted to the heated dry boxes each one holds two rolls of filament so I bought three of those and so the dry box that I built I basically just use it for storage.so when I was using the desiccant my humidity levels in there were in the low 20s so they were good but not great. Consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe.
Hello, just assembled one. I can't figure out how filament trace from spool to connector and to PTFE tube. Maybe you have an answer?
I’m not really sure I understand the question. Basically, I put the filament reels in so the filament comes off the bottom of the reel and goes straight ahead into the small couplers that are in the front lower panel. A PTFE tubing can go through the coupler so you can put the film directly into the Cortex tube. That answers the question. Thanks. Joe.
@@JosephHunstad thanks for your answer. Now I understood what happened. Aliexpres store "Sealand" sent me regular fittings and PTFE tube cant go through them (inside diameter 3.3mm)
Hi ;) can I print the dry box with a Bambu Lab ?
You ask a great question. I assume you can, but I do not have a bamboo printer so I’m not certain. Be sure that the parts aren’t too big for your printer sheet. Consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe.
Hello,
Thank you very much for this review! I am glad you like my design.
Would it be possible for me to link to this video on the printables page?
Yes, please do. I think your design is outstanding the construction went so well it’s great. Yes please link my video that’s fine. Thanks, Joe.
Ciao ti volevo chiedere dove scaricare i porta bobine ?? che in questo progetto non li ho visti Grazie 🙏 🙏 😊
You are correct. I am not using the real holders. I am using those dry boxes to store my filament. The reel holders go in the slot on the side of the printer. Three on the left side two on the right. Consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe.
@@JosephHunstad ok grazie
Hi, what is the full size of the enclosure in mm? Thanks
Hey there, it is 53 mm wide 33 tall and 35 deep consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe.
Could you please link the heat insert press?
Yes I will. I just had a total knee joint so I’m kind of under the weather but hopefully in the next couple days thank you.
@@JosephHunstadNo hurry, I wish you a speedy recovery and good health.
done!! and 3mm inserts
Hey, thanks for your nice comment. I’m a weak now after my knee joint replacement and doing a little bit better. Still hurts like a you know what it’s been a tough recovery but I’m gonna make it. I listed the vertical heat insert is variable priced based on when you look for it and then some of those 3 mm brass threaded Heathe said inserts which I use they are really good. Take care. Joe.

If you could send me the video, that would be great. Thank you very much joe
