Which is to say, not very far on this at all but I think I have a good idea on how have my cake and eat it too for desiccant for my spools.

I am finding I can't get the humidity below about 50% in my AMS and the silica I am using needs constant refreshing.

Well it seems there is stuff called activated alumina that is pretty good and honestly about the same costs as silica beads, but I need to be able to put it in the oven to refresh it. Which doesn't work well with my 3d printed desiccant holders.

Insert, cheap tea strainers.
It seems I can get ones that are 4cm in width by 6cm in height that are made out of stainless steel that I can actually put straight in the oven.

So, I am working on getting the parts and items but was wondering if anyone else has done this or have any suggestions before I start grabbing stuff?

Thought you were joking with the title but if you're really a Trump type thinker go for it.

Quick run through is no way to dry out a wet filament. Try all the new stuff you want and report back but doing things properly still works better.

Fuck Trump

Speaking as a Mod: What is the deal with the Trump comment? That seems uncalled for and random IMO but perhaps I do not understand. I have no issue with your opinion of Trump. I'm wondering why you are accusing someone else of being a "Trump like thinker" that is a pretty hot jab to wield randomly without context.

"concept of a plan" is a trump quote. Not random at all

Sure and we all used covfefe as a meme for a while too.

If we don't laugh we will cry.

But still an absolute insult to jump to just cause I don't do things how you want them to be.

I was joking. I have barely started on this and thought it was funny. Why rush to insult for nothing?

And I don't care to share any of my findings with you if you downvote conversation and jump to insults.

Don't get discouraged. I get where you're coming from. I don't follow the news or care about Trump. I see a satirical replying comment, or enough doubt to see it as such, in a situation where text is hard to convey emotional meaning from both people involved.

Personally, I had a crushing failure with a project from around a week ago. I know how it can be rough sometimes. We can all be friends here. And when we can't, there's always the block user feature to navigate to a more friendly part of our digital social room on Lemmy.

As a mod, I'm only the lowly janitor. I don't paint the walls or fix the floors.

As a user, I understand and sympathize.
