Filament Spool Riser for Waring Pro Dehydrator

Works with Many Waring Pro food dehydrators

This is compatible with many of the models Waring Pro makes.  If the pictures look similar to yours then it will very likely be a fit.  Use these risers to dry spools of filament while also drying out desiccant on the stock trays.

Different Size Options

I am providing you with three height size options.  Size is a measurement of how wide of a spool can fit between the trays when stacked.  (If you want another size just ask in the comments.)

1. 75 mm riser is my preferred size as it fits most spools comfortably.
2. 90 mm riser (This is size I have featured in the pictures. [Top])
3. 120 mm riser.

Print Notes, I used:

• PETG
• 0.6 mm nozzle
• Two perimeters
• 15% infill (Lightning so it was mostly hollow)

How I dry filament

Setup

I prefer to stack the dryer so my spools are on the lower trays and my desiccant is on the upper trays.  I do this because I want the filament to dry first and most completely. I also like to add one of my digital hygrometers onto the top most tray so I can see the readings through the lid.

I have also found it helpful to tape these risers to the trays so they stay attached.  It is very convenient.  I used Gorilla tape but that was excessive.

FIRE WARNING!!! Make sure the bottom of the dehydrator has plenty of air flow.  There is a thermal fuse built into these dehydrators, but you don't want to risk a fire.

Heat Setting & Drying Time 

There are too many variables to give exact instructions.  I usually use the medium heat setting and let it run for 24 to 72 hours.  Some spools will be dry within 1 to 4 hours.  Others (like TPU, Nylon or large desiccant packs) may take 24+ hours. 

How dry should I keep my filament?

It is recommended to store most filaments bellow 30% relative humidity.
