Sunlu FilaDryer S1 3D Filament Edition

I liked the design of the Sunlu FilaDryer S1 3D Printing Mate and it looks good, but the product needs an overhaul! You need to look at the filament output with the modular output option. A small (but quiet) circulation fan should be added. (working on it) humidity sensor. (working on it) You need to evaluate cost and performance. Because the price is a bit high. Still fairly functional but needs or requires additions. This is the next option I'm considering for eibos3d ($125). Most of all I didn't like the parameters of the thread for wiring out of the box. It is necessary to keep 5 filaments dry during continuous printing. So I designed a two piece connector to add a new filament track on the back of the PTFE tubing box. (Also considering other locations) I had to drill 1/2" and 4 3/32" through holes for the fasteners. The push-to-connect screws itself into the end cap. So far this works great and I don't need the thread buffer since the thread is included in the Sunlu S1. I have used Mcmaster-Carr fasteners and push-to connectors for threaded pipe. Quantity 1 - Push-To-Connect - Mcmaster PN no. 51025K774 Qty 4 - Torx Screw #2 - Mcmaster PN # 90618A113
