- ...hello organization! Thank goodness Pooch stopped by to help us install a RepRack for our 3D printer Filament rolls. It was bad, y'all. We couldn't tell what colors we had or how close our rolls were to being empty. It's so much better now! Thanks, Pooch!

My favorite thing about ideas like this is the number of people contributing improvements like the clamps and end caps mentioned. I’ve had plenty of great ideas myself and have learned to love it when someone looks at them and says “you know, this little tweak would be helpful for me”, then realize that it would work for me too.
I too keep my 3d printer in the basement and also have a couple of the PRUSA ones. I like the IKEA LACK table solution. The tables themselves are inexpensive, you can print the fittings, and you can also handle cutting the plastic sheets for the walls/doors. The PRUSA site has instruction and youtube has a video or two about it. They're also modular horizontally and vertically.
I did upgrade mine with a 24v lighting system so I can get a good view of the print.
On very cold days, I'll throw a heating pad in for a few minutes to warm things up before I print.
P.S., there is no sanding involved in this project.
That sounds like a great solution!
Always nice to see a youtuber who bought their own printers instead of shilling with Bambu freebies.
You can buy EMT connectors that will screw onto the ends of you conduit, so there's no need to reinvent the wheel. The same thing for making rollers out of the pipe. You can slip 3/4" PVC over 1/2" EMT, and it roll easily.
Great tips!
Only issue is there is not enough force to slow it from rolling. So it could unroll your spool or tangle.
I know this is a 3D printer video but that is a beautiful Marshall Amp under the printers. I have had an MG30DFX for years and it still performed great. I would say in a workshop probably worth getting a cover just to stop dust getting into the speakers. Love to see your videos 😁
I looooove my Marshall amp. Good call on the dust cover.
A great looking system.
Thank you!
I want to shrink this down for ribbon! ❤
I liked the bit where they took apart the existing shelf that was big enough to hold all of the filament so that they could put up something new up to hold all of the filament.
I think the takeaway was that they are setting it up to spool directly off of the shelf into the boden tube, and, the spools can rest on end instead of stacked. Circles roll on flat surfaces 🙂
It's actually a really good idea. You could make the equivalent of a really big temperature controlled AMS pod....however, if I'm being honest since I've got a Bambu I'd probably just daisy chain a few AMS pods on that shelf and call it done.
Always get the screw started first.
Clearly I need more practice. 😂
I am using a similar setup using conduit and boards. mine is connected to the ceiling of the garage (where my printer is.) I can store the bagged filament on the rack.
The only issue I see with ganged feeding spools is that when pulling one, it can unspool it's neighbor.
I dunno, I’m probably the last person to be giving advice about storage but I think what you had was fine. I also do all my large foam cutting on the floor…
This was good timing. One of my next projects was going to be wall mounted filament storage!
Fantastic!
Yeah. Looks cool. But what about moisture. It doesn't do shit with main problem of humidity.
Cheapest method I've found is gallon freezer ziplock bags with desiccant baggies. I've also got a bag of Crystal Cat Litter but haven't used it yet. I used do setup new copy machines and they came palleted with desiccant bags as big as my fist!!!😂 Needless to say, I won't run out of desiccant any time soon!!!
Exactly. This is a terrible solution if you want your filament to stay dry and have high quality prints.
Better to just keep the rolls in some plastic containers with lids or even ziplock bags.
Fortunately our basement has low humidity, so leaving filament spools out doesn’t seem to have a negative effect. Of course your results may vary.
How do you get your basement so dry living in the Pacific NorthWet? I struggle to keep my humidity below 60%.
Also, do you have static issues below 30%?
I don't know why, but our basement has always had low humidity. Yes, in the winter static electricity is more prevalent, but it hasn't been an issue in the shop.
I live in Mississippi and get a TON of humidity roiling off the Gulf Coast in the summer--insanely humid!!! In the winter it gets dry as a bone and things start to pop & crackle!!! Easiest way I've found to fix low humidity in the house is with what is called a "Swamp Cooler" aka "Evaporative Cooler" which I have directed at the cold air return of our heating & A/C system. This method does several things: 1. Filters air through the water actively pumped over the filter media & filters out particulates. 2. Keeps the water from stagnating and growing mold. 3. Doesn't force humidity into the air like a steam humidifier would. 4. Keeps humidity levels between 45-55% which is ideal for comfort. 35% is a bit low and when you start getting static, that's when you start putting your electronics at risk!!!😬
@@fookingsog From my experience, 30%-50% is the best range for comfort. I lived in Georgia for almost a decade and thought I had experienced the worst in hot, humidity. That would be Panama. Up here in the Pacific Northwest it very rarely drops below 50% for outdoor humidity. In all of the places I've lived, I've never had to fight so much against rust, mold, mildew, etc..
In Chicago, I experienced the extremes. Super humid in the summer, super dry in the winter. As kids we'd run around the house in the winter, dragging our socked feet along the carpet and shocking the crap out of each other.
@@MichaelTotin FluidFilm lubricant contains Lanolin (wool wax) and is a great Protectant against rust!!! Just clean the rust off first!!!
@MichaelTotin Copper Sulphate (blue crystals) dissolved in water and sprayed on moss or mold (on your roof) will kill it. I had a bad case of some black mold in my house A/C ductwork and vents due to condensation problems. I just mixed up a nice solution of blue copper sulfate crystals in water in my pump sprayer, sprayed it down inside the vents and haven't had a problem since!!! Hope this helps!
One thing I learned is to never invite Pooch into your home or you will suddenly have French cleats.
It's true!
Super Nifty!!! Although if you don't have the wall space to hang it on it's not very practical!!! Personally I used an NSF kitchen wire rack and made a rectangular PVC pipe frame for the rolls to sit on vertically so they don't roll off the shelf. All rolls are in gallon freezer ziplock bags with dessicant bags to keep them dry as I live in MS and humidity can get ridiculous in the summer.
That’s such a great solution!
Prusa printers, nice 🙂
They’ve been really awesome to use.
I built an enclosure for my big printer from wood with an acrylic door. But I'm in the process of printing a couple enclosures from printable accessories for my normal size printers.
Excellent!
@5:40: Print some feather boards for that table saw :)
Awesome idea!
Such a fun little project! Can't wait to see how it evolves as your 3D Printing journey evolves.
Also... FRENCH CLEATS FTW!!!
BILL, MY BROTHER IN CHRIST THAT STORAGE lol im glad your doing shop upgrades, i've been doing a ton myself. so satisfying!
Shop infrastructure FTW.
Now to organise my life...
man, I was literally planning out a better storage system for my filament last night. then I start the video and I'm like, "oh damn, a bin would actually be an improvement on my current stacked-randomly-around-the-house system'" 😬
HA! We all have our own systems...
My boyfriend made something similar for our filament for my school’s “student run lab” but alas the lab was shut down indefinitely
Awe bummer!
Apothic Red... groovy
Ooh yeah we’ve been trying out all kinds of fun colors.
What about humidity? Its going to mess up the filament?
Didn't even know Marshall made 3D printers. :)
If only. 😂
E a umidade no filamento?
My workshop has very low humidity. Moisture isn’t a problem.
My custom enclosure is just to buy a Bambu P1S printer and get rid of my Creality CR-10 :)
Those new machines with their own enclosures are really fantastic.
Looks like you could use an up-down cutter (surprisingly hard to find by that name, but I have no idea what else they would be called), they're specially made for cncing plywood. The spiral goes the opposite way at the tip so the fibers gets pulled up at the bottom and pushed down at the top, leading to cleaner cuts.
Oh yeah! I think that’s a “compression” bit?
very nifty storage solution! Love the @MakeSomething call out of David being cool at 6:50
Well he *is* the coolest. 😃
Bin of holding, lol
Perfect, right?
Pooooooooooooooooooooch
We
No concerns about moisture? Being all open and exposed like that, seems like you’d have to dry your filaments constantly if you leave them in a system like that.
My shop has very low humidity and moisture isn’t an issue.
