I normally publish and update all my models at MakerWorld. They are only here on Printables to keep the accounts consistent.

Please download the newest version here at MakerWorld.

The basket fits exactly into the Creality Space Pi filament dryer.

Simply dry your desiccant / silica gel at 70°C for a few hours, stir from time to time.

The holes/slots are 0.8mm wide.

You may want to use OndraM's Air Vent Gap Spacer to increase the drying time …

 

Printing Tips (!)

This model is quite difficult to print, but therefore you don't have to assemble parts. 

It's mandatory to use a high temperature filament like ABS, ASA, PC or similar! 
PETG and PLA will deform.

Take care of slow printing, especially the overhangs and bridges. 

I used 100% part fan for the overhangs and bridges.

A large brim (!) will help to prevent warping. 

100% concentric infill will give a bit more stability.

The wall generator “Arachne” has problems with the bridges, use “Classic” instead.

ASA worked better for me than ABS. 

No supports needed. 

I uploaded a .3mf file with my settings.
