okay youtube got my airtight box out here where i can work on it to place the ends here see they
fit right in there uh the spools are normally about eight inch diameter so what i did give it
a little bit of room i measured down from the top five inches and then i made myself a little jig
that just fits in here marked the center and then just trace the line and put this on the outside
to mark the holes and these are this is sized for three millimeter hex nuts and the way you
put that on as you stick this on the inside you run the screws through from the outside
and put the nuts on on the inside so okay you got one end on i need to flip that around and repeat
on the other side and then we can cut the rod to length and let me show you the information on the
box here yes this is the sterilite gasket box i guess is what they call it i think oh this
is even bigger 80 quarts 76 liter i bought the biggest one they had yeah 24 long 18 wide 15 high
there's the dimensions so anyway i'll show you what it looks like when i get the ready to put
the rod in there so that's the next step and this is how i mark the uh place for my hanger
as i come down from the top just round my tape measure down five inches and i have a little uh
piece of cardboard here and i just draw a line across and then there's the center mark
just run that up and down a little bit just put that on there line up the crosses through there
mark them with pin and then drill them eight inch or three millimeter hole okay i think we
got the rod cut to length here i did about 19 and a half inches that gives you just enough room to
clear the head of the nut on either end so it just comes out and then it kind of snaps into place so
i think that works good let's put a few spools on there see what it looks like
okay youtube i think that'll work so i've got two regular spools in there i got room for a
third one right in the middle and then i've got my nylon over on the far end left there so yeah
i think that'll work pretty good so let me show you what it looks like when i get these laid out
figure out where to put those and uh we'll go from there okay i just used a piece of masking tape ran
across the bottom and that's just the right spacing if you run the holes uh horizontally
like that so i just kind of eyeballed about the middle of each uh spool and then you kind of
have to work around the clasp because i wanted the holes up as high as i could and those still
everything still works there so it should clear so i guess i just got to get my screws out and
screw the ones i have on there the one thing i did with these i guess they're set up for a
three millimeter guide tube i have a three but i also have some four millimeter tube so i drilled
the center out with a four millimeter bit just so it's be able to fit my guide tube in there
figure i better do that before i install them so that should get her done so i'll show you what
it looks like when i get it finished here okay i got the four pass-throughs over here on this side
and the last step you have to do is i've got a two millimeter bit here and i need to drill
through there
so that'll leave a hole for the filament to come in i'll probably go on the back side here and open
that hole up a bit get a pilot bit to open up the hole just so it's uh easier to feed the filament
in so anyway back to work i'll show you what it looks like when i get her finished here okay there
we go got the filament pass through here i'll just plug my filament guide tube material for my two
millimeter teflon tube so i can just leave each uh filament just sticking out a little bit here
and then you know you'll use this to feed into the extruder so like when you want to change filament
you'll have to get in here and spin the roll back to pull the filament out of the guide tube
and then you'll take your next one and feed it out here so you can feed the second one through
here here here or i've got the fourth one over there for my nylon way on the end
so i've got plenty of room down here for um filament storage so any open spools i have i can
keep in here i'll see if i can get this finished up tomorrow getting a little late today so i'll
call our quits for tonight and we'll take it upstairs tomorrow and see if we can finish up
the mount this one to the back of the printer and then get the filament filter in there and
then i gotta print a couple more of these that's the first first project is print some more of
these things and put one there one on the other side and then i've got this one for the back
of the printer so yeah i'll show you what that looks like when i get there thanks for watching
