My printer is located in an unheated, ventilated garage with the possibility of high levels of humidity.

Filament Holders using Totem parts. I used M10 screwed rod 97mm long with nuts. (Basically because that what was lying around).

Box was an Ikea SAMLA Box, transparent39x28x28 cm/22 l (SAMLA transparent, Box, 39x28x28 cm/22 l - IKEA).

Hi. I’ve made some updates that I would like to share. I was having a lot problems lining up the M10 hex nuts into the holders. I’ve done away with the M10 steel screwed rod and nut, and printed off in plastic. The screwed nuts are now round and will drop in from any position.

I also fitted a hygrometer logger to one of the holders, and connects to my phone via the Sensor Blue App. This was purchased very cheaply from Amazon.

Any other could be used and fitted accordingly. I had to glue mine to the 30mm beams.

I’ve attached altered files below.
