The file 'PTFE Tube Cap To Keep The Filament Dry + Tube Holder 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 1.5MB.
When I made my first dryboxes I didnt find any nice filament cap for them. So I designed the tiny version :P Very minimalistic!
But over time I did not like how fiddly it was to mount them to the tube. So I created this bigger version.
It is better to grip, holds tight to the tube and if you put the filament inside with a little amount of force it should hold the filament too. But that is not necessary. I designed the cap intentionally with more material so the filament will stay dry this time!
I recommend to print the caps with the fitting color. So it is more easy to choose the right one if you use unclear tubes.
If you are building your drybox you may also want to use these passtrhoughs I designed: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4923697
In addition to the caps I designed a very simple holder for the tubes to make the whole system more organized. If you need a remix of the holder please describe your wishes in the comment section.
Have fun and keep printin!
